I've tried to make her quit, but you know what these headstrong Swedish women are like. Give them a pipe, and a helmet with horns, and there's no stopping them.....

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 50 years I've lived in S W France. I am a painter by profession, and writer by desire. Lady Magnon and I live between an ancient cottage in a tiny village in perfectly tranquil French countryside, and a bijou townhouse in Brighton UK. In France we have plenty of fruit trees, all situated amongst a view that takes the breath away, in the UK we have a handkerchief sized patio. 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!
Love it, great pic,looks like it was a lovely day there. Carole
ReplyDeleteI think she's holding the pipe for you Cro and you're sending smoke signals!!!
ReplyDeleteThey're saying HELP!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the way the cloud looks as if it's coming from her pipe! (I like an occasional cigar...those cute little thin, girlie ones)
ReplyDeleteYou wouldn't believe how long it took for the right sized/shaped cloud to come along.
ReplyDeleteI simply LOVE this photo...it is awesome!
