Optimistic Cro!
The difference between an optimist and a pessimist, is that the optimist enjoys himself whilst waiting for the inevitable! I AM that optimist!

About Me
- Cro Magnon
- I was born just south of London, but for the past 46 years I've lived in S W France. I am a painter by profession, and writer by desire. Lady Magnon and I live in an ancient cottage, in a tiny village, in perfectly tranquil countryside. We have a vegetable garden called 'Haddock's' (this may crop up from time to time), plenty of fruit trees, and a view that takes the breath away; we also have a Border Collie called Billy. I try to treat our planet with respect, and encourage others to do likewise (without preaching). Contentment is a glass of red, a plate of charcuterie, and a slice of good country bread. Perfect!
mmmmmmm chocolate.Actually I'm in mourning, and all because of chocolate. My Dr. said because of some reflux stuff it'd be good if I gave it up. I'd just made some brownies.Take them to work I told my Manly Man!(he said,(under his breath)"we'll see how long this lasts"! I'll have you know it's been three days now! To you and yours,
