‘I thought I was applying for a guide dog; what I actually got was my life back.’ So said a 35-year-old woman from Telford I met some four or five years ago. That about sums it up. That’s what a guide dog has done for the 4,500 blind and partially sighted people who have one. That is what my guide dog has done for me. It is to raise money for the Guide Dogs for the Blind Association that I am publishing this book. It’s not great writing. What your will find is a series of short stories, parodies, satirical pieces and limericks. It isn’t even good writing but the bits and pieces it contains have amused my family, my friends and the creative writing group to which I belong. It’s meant to be dipped into rather than read through at one sitting. I hope it amuses you. The profits from this will go to help other visually impaired people enjoy the same freedom to get around as you and I have.
