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!
I saw this on our morning show how funny and well set up...well I guess it was set up. White King is bleach Cro so I guess Margaret is worse off than us .
ReplyDeleteVery good. We can only wish...
ReplyDeleteI know it's not a laughing matter but that really is very funny!
ReplyDeleteHey Cro, Just wanted to say Thank you for suggesting to use Google Chrome for a browser with less problems. I am amazed at how much less trouble I have viewing and commenting on sites. Awesome!!!
