We have been without internet for a day, so my daily ramblings will resume tomorrow.

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!
Missed your morning meandering. Looking forward to tomorrow's .
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how troubling it is to lose contact with the world. It's my oldest son's birthday today too.
DeleteI was about to send a search party .... I was worried ..... you never miss a day. So pleased that it's only your internet connection !!! XXXX
ReplyDeleteSo am I; ahem!
DeleteI was getting worried. Phew.
ReplyDeleteIt was cut off at about 5 pm yesterday, and it only returned at about 2 pm today. I believe a very large area was involved.
DeleteI worried too. Happy birthday to your son.
ReplyDeleteThank you Yael.
DeleteCro, sorry that your connection's been iffy. I finally had a chance to catch up on your recent posts and surely hope to see a new post from you soon.
ReplyDelete(Particularly liked the pecking order post!)
I believe a huge area was totally closed down; possibly for the installation of 'fibre optics'.
DeleteI thought, oh, he's on the way to the airport again.
ReplyDeleteFabulous day here again; I've been mowing.
DeleteI opened the kitchen window.
DeleteI was worried. I'm relieved now.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to your son, and I'm glad you can Skype him now.
It is a lovely cloudless day here, 23 degrees, and loving it!
Greetings Maria x
Back to rain tomorrow, but it's been glorious throughout Europe.
DeleteWe have rain in New Zealand, a low signal and an ageing tablet computer..I feel your pain! Glad you now are reconnected
ReplyDeleteWith both the telephone and internet disabled I felt very cut-off; I don't have a mobile.
DeleteDoes us good sometimes to be unwired!
DeleteWould a mobile be useful for emergencies Cro?
