ODGO SEMMENS' LATEST MASTERPIECE


By our Poetry Correspondent, Alice Chirgwin-Jacka
'Odgo Semmens (79) the celebrated Cornish poet and author of the now globally renowned and treasured poem I Aren't, has, under considerable public pressure from the crowds besieging his home in Colinsey Road, Penzance, released a further work, Walking in West Penwith, which seems set to seal his reputation as one of the greatest living poets in Colinsey Road.

Walking in West Penwith

Las' Sunday we went walking, ovver to Lamorna bay.
From the top o' Mousel we set out, a glorious sunshine day.
The smell of heather in the air, the glass-green sea below -
It's jes' this sort of beauty that sets my heart aglow.

Las' Tuesday we went walkin', up the back of Gulval 'ill:
You get a good view of the Mount and bay - I can see it still.
Chysauster's ancient magic will never pass away,
You can hear their talk and laughter - hear it to this day.

Las' Wen'sday we went walkin, ovver to the Logan Rock:
We sat there drinkin' in the scene an''ad a snooze an' talk.
Perched high atop the granite cliffs, with sand beach far below,
You watch the distant dance of waves, that make their ebb and flow.

All the walks around this place are paths that lead through time.
And if you are a Cornishman, you hear an inner chime...

'An it's tellin' you "You're 'ome, boy, you're 'ome!"

'Odgo

Office Solutions from Trembath Office Equipment, Crows an Wra

Trembath Office Equipment has become internationally renowned for its inventive use of space in office planning. Our world-beating design team has recently applied its creative zeal to solving the problems of staff time lost in toilet visits -- as well as making best use of space hitherto only used for toilet visits.

The Solution? The Trembath Office Toilet Workstation! Separate toilet blocks are scrapped! Now everyone sits and works on a Trembath toilet, fully equipped with workstation, telephone, and, of course, with a toilet roll. There is also a swing-out table for eating one's lunch 'al desko'. There is now no need to leave one's desk/seat/toilet. You come into work, make yourself comfy and settle down to the tasks of the day uninterrupted by the irksome need to leave your desk to go to the loo. All your business can be accomplished in one place!

The Trembath Office Toilet Workstation is a mere snip at £987.99.

Notes:
1. Air freshener dispensers are extra at £104.99.
2. 'Hot desking' is probably not an option.
3. Male and female staff will need to 'get seated' separately (Note that curtains drop during the seating process and, again, at the end of the day.) Trembath thinks of everything!!!!
