Hi it's DAve - the wandering bard, itinerant photographer, husband, author and other interesting (well to me anyway) bits and pieces. Sometimes things happen, articles may be read, something might have appeared on TV that makes me think "what on earth???"                                Now I don't think that I am refusing to "move with the times"!  However, the subject I refer to in the video above really had me shaking my head "in despair" - children are children!, they learn by experimenting and possibly (or more importantly), through play.  Their imagination fuels that process and allows them to broaden their horizons. In fact, if we take that thinking one step further.....  what if a little girl wanted to dress as a boy, would anyone call that sinister, strange or odd? I very much  doubt it! So my feelings are this:- if a child wants to experiment with clothing then we should let them, we should let them use their imagination and as such grow.

Hi, it's DAve (the wandering bard, itinerant photographer, husband, author and other interesting (well to me anyway) bits and pieces)! I am well aware that the posts on this page have been spasmodic to say the least, in fact they have been practically non-existent this year! That said, I have been busy with family stuff, photo work and also matters of the heart! But now I feel that the time is now right for me to give everyone a heads up about the latest book I am working on. The cover of which is illustrated here:- The content of this book is made up of snippets of conversations and other  moments from my experiences (over the last 25 or so years) during my work as an entertainment professional.
