I'm not in the mood for writing

But you can't stop words, can you?

[Cosmos knows I've tried ...]

I'm in the mood for collapsing on a sandy beach.

Yes!

I'm in the mood for a friendly sea coming in to sweep me away.

As a massive favour, like.

Anyway ...

That idea or plan yesterday about 150 poems in five years with twenty classics is only good with a settled life. Cups of tea and crumpets, etc.

It's no good for the streets.

It's no good for the cliffs.

You dig?

A better idea would be to write slowly, a poem here, and a poem there, but every poem a killer.

Every poem should count if you're desperate.

[I mean, I'll have me guitar to play, too.]

Or maybe the 150 all killers, classics!

I don't know, man.

My poem? The one I started on Tuesday? Well, I've got twenty-five lines now. Only eleven to go! And I've polished it as well. It's shaping up to be a great poem. A lot will depend on the last four lines.

How great is it/will it be ... compared to Yeats? Er ... not as great as his four best poems, but certainly up there with the best of the rest.

For your information, kooks, his four best poems are:

The Second Coming

Sailing to Byzantium

Byzantium

A Prayer for my Daughter

According to me, obviously. Who else?

Anyway ...

Bye.

[No. 1,094] Plan B - ???

Nexans Norway's

Uh.

'What the hell is going on, boss?!'

You tell me, Voice.

I'd rather be writing poetry.

[More of that later ...]

Anyway ...

Eksfin finances Nexans Norway's new UK export cable contract with NOK 2bn (£155m) in loan guarantees.

NOK two billion?!

'Who's knocking it?! That's good, surely?'

I don't know, man.

The transaction covers the export and installation of advanced high-voltage subsea cables for the Moray West wind farm off the coast of Scotland. Export Finance Norway (Eksfin)'s global portfolio of loans and guarantees covering Norwegian exports to offshore wind projects has swelled to NOK 15bn since 2019.

Swelled to NOK?! These people are out of control! 'Toe the windy blood, boss!' Shut up, Voice! Please!

The Moray West wind park off the east coast of Scotland is owned by Ocean Winds, the joint venture between ENGIE (France) and EDP Renewables (from EDP group, Portugal) dedicated to offshore wind energy. The offshore wind farm will feature 60 turbines and installed capacity of 882 MW by 2025 - equating the energy demand of 1.33 million UK homes and emissions reduction of 1.1 million tonnes of CO2.

Ambitious customer.

What?

Ocean Winds holds a portfolio of 16.6 GW of gross capacity of offshore wind energy from 15 projects in operation, construction and secured development in 7 countries, making the company one the largest developers of offshore wind globally and potentially a very important customer for Norwegian exporters in this sector.

Oh, important customer. 'They're confused!' We all are.

The Moray West contract markedly strengthens Nexans Norway's position in this market. It will manufacture the cables at its factory in Halden and install them using its own dedicated cable layer vessels.

Okay.

Eksfin paves the way for private capital.

Does it?

Offshore wind projects typically demand more capital than developers and their banks can finance on their own. State-backed guarantees from Eksfin carry the highest AAA credit rating and make it easier for private banks to provide financing. In this project, Eksfin is working with a large loan syndicate where Crédit Agricole CIB acts as financial advisor and arranger of the loan facilities to Moray West.

Fine.

Anyway ... we've got voices. 'Yippee!'

"Financing Norwegian deliveries to international offshore wind projects is a key strategic priority for us. I am happy that, together with Nexans, we have succeeded in securing yet another big export contract for Norwegian wind industry in this important market," says Eksfin managing director Tone Lunde Bakker.

"The transaction also strengthens our relationship with Ocean Winds, one of the world's leading offshore wind developers. We would like to help many more Norwegian suppliers win business in these kinds of renewable energy projects. It's good for business and good for the planet," she adds.

All right.

What about Ragnhild?

"Having Eksfin on our team and being able to offer financing and loan guarantees to our customers is a major strength and competitive advantage in our export activities", says Nexans Norway managing director Ragnhild Katteland.

Fair enough.

Fact box:

No, no, no. We don't want no fact box, thank you very much. We've had enough.

These people.

...

Anything else? My poem?

Ha! I've got sixteen lines! It's like shooting fish in a barrel. I need another twenty lines, but this is already the best poetry I've ever written ...

Probably because I have more word-power now than thirty years ago. That's down to the millions of words I've written in this blog ... like the Karate Kid, you know? 'Eh?!' Wax on, wax off, Voice. 'Oh, I get you.'

Yeah.

Nice one, obviously.

Laters.

'Bye!'

As I walked to Richmond ...

Actually, no ...

As I walked back from Richmond this morning, yes ... because on the way there, I took my normal route along the road ...

BUT(!) ...

On the way back ... I walked along the river for the first time ever.

Yes.

I didn't really know what was going on ... it was like the countryside, honestly ... lots of wildlife, obviously.

However, I ended up on the Ringo side of the river - which was nice.

So ...

Anyway, as I walked back ...

Two lines of rather great poetry came to me.

Out of nowhere!

I was inspired, man.

Seriously.

I should write the poem ...

'You should!'

If I can sustain it ... well, it might turn out to be a great poem.

I could enter it in the National Poetry Competition later on in the year.

I mean ...

If I'm forced to become a poet, like ... by circumstances, you understand.

'I understand, boss.'

Good.

My life ...

This is a bit fragmented ...

Anyway ...

I reckon to be a great poet these days ... you probably have to Google every line you write.

I've just Googled my two, and they're fine. Totally original!

'Nice one!'

Thanks, Voice.

Listen! If I write about Nature and universal stuff ... life and death ... and all that jazz ... I'll avoid obscurity.

No time for it!

Poles of windy skull? Do me a favour! 'Toe the windy blood!' Eh?

I'll be clear, and concentrated, and go in for lots of great rhetoric ... like Yeats when he wasn't wittering on about spirits and goblins or whatever.

'Fairies!'

I beg your pardon?

'He wrote about fairies. He was ... The Man Who Dreamed of Faeryland ... remember?'

Ha! How could I forget?

I'll tell you, kooks ... you can say what you like about me, but I've never been The Man Who Dreamed of Faeryland. FFS. Do you know what I mean?

Anyway ...

Yeah, late period Yeats is the best. And bits of Shakespeare.

'You could have conversations with me in the poems!'

No. No, I won't be doing that.

'Your loss.'

Right.

It's bad enough ...

'What?'

Never mind.

One voice, my voice, will be all right by itself.

I don't want chaos, do I?

'I suppose not.'

Bye.

'Bye.'

Free shares!

'Give me some, boss!'

What?!

I ain't got none, Voice!

'Oh. ... ... ... /// ... ... ... What are you talking about then?'

This -

I've got a great consumer story. WeShop is making retail history allowing people to make cash from FREE shares. The UK shopping platform WeShop, the world's first shopping platform which rewards with 20% of shares for every purchase, is now paying out CASH for SHARES.

The community owned e-commerce platform has seen incredible growth with over 115,000 Brits now using the site to make purchases and earn FREE shares which can be cashed in.

The chairman Richard Griffiths is available for interview.

Best wishes

Ian

Yeah, yeah.

'Is this a PR email?'

Of course it is.

Anyway ...

'Are you going to interview Richie?'

Christ! No.

'Is he going to interview you?'

I don't give interviews, idiot.

'Right. I forgot.'

I'm not talking to anyone ...

I'll let him have his say though ...

Weshop Chairman, Richard Griffiths, says: "The way we shop has changed dramatically in the last ten years thanks to rapid advances in technology. While we've seen the dramatic growth of online shopping platforms - and their profits - none of them are designed to benefit the people who keep them going, the shoppers. That's why WeShop was born, building a totally shoppable social network that is owned by the community. And to show we are serious, we're giving away over 90% of WeShop to the people who use it. We think that the potential of WeShop is gigantic and will have a massive impact on the world of ecommerce and online retail. Imagine if Amazon had done this when they started, the wealth created by Amazon would have been shared amongst the people who made it successful, its users. Indeed, the world might look very different now, and that's what we're trying to achieve, a better, fairer and more democratised shopping experience for everyone."

Ha, ha, ha! Richie, son, if Amazon had done that when they started, Jeff wouldn't have that big super mega yacht of his, would he?

Dear oh dear.

Never mind.

I mean ... that's the whole point of starting a business like this, surely? Or am I missing something?

'Some people don't care about money, boss. Like Elon.'

Yeah, right. That's why Elon is worth $200 billion. Idiot!'

Never mind.

ENDS

...

Anything else? Music?

I've decided that Good Times is my minimum standard for a BIG song. I mean, I was rehearsing it last night, and I rather like it ...

So ...

Mighty Soul

Shady, Dodgy, Shifty

This Love

The Future

Life and Death

Nothing

This World Don't Mean a Thing

Lovers On The Make

Stella

Malibu

What's This Life We Live?

And Rain Came Down

Good Times

So, I need seven more songs for a BIG TWENTY ...

'Yippee!'

Ha! Don't celebrate yet, Voice. Writing songs isn't a priority for me at the moment because ...

I need to rehearse, rehearse, rehearse ...

You dig?

'Yeah, okay.'

Laters!

Words on a Wednesday

That's not a bad title, is it?

'It's not great, boss.'

It's not bad though, Voice.

Idiot.

Anyway, kooks ... these are my words on a Wednesday.

PR emails? Oh, I've got a few, but - 'Too few to mention!' But I'm not in the mood. 'Okay.'

What an idiot!

'Leave me alone!'

Shut up.

'I'm not an idiot.'

Whatever.

You make Elon look like Lucky. Or Lucky look like Elon.

'What do you mean?'

I don't know.

Just making conversation, that's all. Just using words, for my sins.

'Put some music on!'

No.

'Sing us a song!'

NO!

Let's have some silence for a bit.

[Silence.]

'How much of a bit?'

Longer than that.

[Long silence.]

'I'm bored.'

Say something then. Say something interesting.

'On my wages?! Are you serious?!'

Idiot.

Anyway ...

I've been thinking ... if I end up in Cornwall soon, because of the way things are ... I'll have to keep myself occupied - without electricity.

'Play your guitar!'

Yes, yes ... I'll be playing me guitar for me dinner in me tent, BUT(!) ... I'll need something else to do.

'Write your novel! The greatest true story of escape and adventure ever written!'

Ha! I'm going off that idea.

'Oh. Shame.'

I'm thinking about becoming a rural poet instead - like Dylan Thomas. Cornwall is the perfect place for it.

'But you don't like poetry!'

I like poetry, man! I prefer my conceptual literature, but I could really get into poetry again ... in the right environment, like.

There won't be much else to do.

I could write a poem a week ... I mean, carefully.

Polished.

I could stare at the sun.

I could stare at the moon.

I could sit on a rock.

I could stare at the sea, obviously.

And it could all go in poems.

'Nice one!'

Yes, they would be nice ones, all of the poems.

I could be like Tom Conti in that film.

'Ha!'

Ha, ha, ha!

Yes.

Why not?

There won't be anything else to do.

My guitar, obviously.

But ...

You know?

Do you know?

Or ... is all this too romantic for you?

'Slags!'

Leave them alone, Voice.

Bye.

'Bye!'

Yes, bye.
