Enjoy Susie’s Trio for the week: 



Fachidiot:  A German term for a one-track specialist who is an expert in his field, but takes a blinkered approach to multi-faceted problems.



Akiihi: A Hawaiian word that describes the forgetfulness of someone who has just been given directions and immediately forgets.



Attaccabottoni: An Italian  word to describe someone who button-holes you and proceeds to bore you with endless stories.





Gyles' poem this week was read out by the actor Neil Titley.



Poetry or Prose by Brandon Behan



There was a young man named Rollocks,

Who worked for Ferrier Pollocks. 

As he walked on the Strand, 

With his girl by the hand,

The tide came up to his knees
