An Old Plumber, An Ex-Carer, An Amateur Poet, Words From The Heart
Clunes Booktown Festival 2025
All the Essentials are packed Clunes: here we come!
A Poet’s Paradise, The Clunes Booktown Festival
The Event is probably the biggest Book Festival in Australia, and “I’ll be there this weekend, March 22nd and 23rd,” in one of the many “Book Trader Marquees.”
G'day, and welcome to my blog site. My name is Ivor Steven, I live in Geelong, Australia. I'm an ex-industrial chemist, and a retired plumber, and a former Carer of my wife(Carole), for 30 years, who suffered from severe MS. I Write poetry about those personal thoughts, throughout and beyond my life as a Carer.
I've been blogging for over 2 years, and writing poems for 19 years. Of course a lot of my poems are about my favourite subject Carole, but since I've been blogging my writings have become quite varied, humourous, mystical, observational, and even a few monster/horror poems.

That looks like a must to attend. I hope all goes well
I read through the Clunes Booktown Festival site and would enjoy going. But would definitely need some guidance before getting a ticket. Then there’s the ticket to Australia too. Will await your write up about it. Enjoy!
We love going to these friendly events together … Frankie is such a charmer with all the patrons, that he makes the fairs even more enjoyable to be at … 🐶📘📕🌏😍💕
