Come Janice. I read the other poets in Quadrant. Joe Dolce is very good for one. He has a website. And Jennifer Compton too. And Victoria Field, a wonderful poem lately about her daughter's first period. Not something we dads can share, as a rule. And the great (and fat) Les Murray of course.

And back here in Blighty I'm a big fan of James Fenton, as you should be too, though I don't know if he has written much lately. But I've bought his books, paid money down. And I read any poems that appear in The Spectator.

Poetry Review isn't very good now, I'm glad to say, since they won't take me at any price.

I like to feel that what I do is in some sort of mainstream. And it is.

Gail, no I haven't. Tell me more.
