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!
I'm having internet problems this morning; probably due to a storm last night. So, I'm offering this wonderful clip as an infill.
ReplyDeleteInternet failure comes with good timing, look at it from a positive point of view Cro, this means you can enjoy another wonderful day with your family without interuptions. I was thinking how lovely for you and Lady M. to be with family. Enjoy your second day of bithdaying :)
