Hi, thank you for visiting my list of stories. You'll find a bunch more of my "tales of woe" under my other by-line Denham Forrest.
For those of you who are unaware, I'm an M.E. sufferer who writes to stop myself from going completely bunkers. Some say, that I've gone "stark raving mad," but who gives a monkeys uncle?
Anyway, read and hopefully enjoy. But don't take anything you read here too seriously, I know I don't!
Whether you like what you read or not, please don't forget to vote. And, I do appreciate it when readers drop me the odd line to let me know their... er, reactions, to my demented diatribes. Breaks the old monotony a little as well!
