My Kid

The levy broke

and waters ran

A portent of a new

lifespan

To a place lit

with sterile lights

of stainless steel

Chemical flights

Mop a brow

hold a hand

A soothing word

a useless man

A final quake

One cry is two

Orchestra of girls

One old one new

I hold the life

like mad parents did

and say hello

To my new kid.

es, taking your children to the park can be exhausting. But when they have a great time, also very rewarding. It’s swings and roundabouts.

Love this writer I bought his previous books and in my opinion this is the best so far. The stories are much more diverse than the others. For a book of short stories there are a lot there, great to pop in and read as and when you want to. Read mine on the train, I laughed out loud at one point making my fellow passengers jump out of their seats. Recommended read....

The cast of six was originally meant to be four.

Courteney Cox is the only regular cast member who never got an Emmy nomination for the show.

Before the show had been cast, Monica and Joey were intended to be the central couple.

The real address of the Friends' apartment, as used in the exterior shots, is 90 Bedford Street in Manhattan's West Village.

The only person who wasn't a fan of the show's iconic 'The Rachel' haircut was Jennifer Aniston herself.

Phoebe was originally conceived as a goth girl.

Right before the show premiered, the cast took a group trip to Vegas for one last taste of anonymity.

The refrigerators in both apartments really worked.

The show had many names before settling with the name Friends:- Friends Like Us, Six of One, Across the Hall, Once Upon a Time in the West Village and Insomnia Cafe.

"Shiny Happy People" by REM was the original choice for the Theme Song for the show and was used in the pilot when the show was still called Friends Like Us.

The Producers David Crane and Marta Kauffman co-wrote "I'll be there for you" with Phil Solem and Danny Wilde of the Rembrandts. Used for the theme song for all ten series.

In 1995, the song reached number 1 in the Billboard Hot 100 Airplay chart for eight weeks.

Ellen DeGeneres turned down the role of Phoebe.

Matt LeBlanc started going grey in his twenties and had to have his hair dyed throughout the series.

The final episode was watched by 52.46 million viewers and is ranked fourth most watch TV finale in US History.
