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!
Do Freddie and Bok and you eat your breakfast together?
ReplyDeleteFunnily enough; yes. They sit looking at me, and demand bits of bacon or egg.
DeleteI have "butler's chair" just like yours, but mine is grey. Good thing, I'm very messy. Love your home, especially that bar area.
ReplyDeleteEvery home needs a bar. My chair has seen better days; I must wash the covers.
DeleteI like the colors of your house,and the animals too.Mine are the same.
ReplyDeleteA lot of red in our sitting room... it all happened by chance.
DeleteBoss, under boss and butler. What is Lady M's title?
ReplyDeleteWaitress.
DeleteDoes The Boss still have to negotiate the overnight upturned chairs on his sofa? Perhaps you have lost that 'fight'.
ReplyDeleteI've given up, and now just supply the washable sheets. I was on the losing side.
DeleteContented animals in a very cosy home. Lovely. I bet Lady M is top boss?
ReplyDeleteShe certainly thinks she is; Freddie knows better.
DeleteLoved the scenes. Dog, cat, man. A happy family and everyone knows his place
ReplyDeleteThat's just about it.
DeleteAm loving that candelabra
ReplyDeleteIt's covered in 'diamonds'.
DeleteIt's your floor that I covet - so "warm"!! (I am servant and door opener for our two cats). -Jenn
ReplyDeleteThe floor tiles come from a small nearby tile-maker. We also use their roof tiles. Nothing industrial in this house.
DeleteA loving contented home - life as it should be.
ReplyDeleteAs I write, the scene is exactly the same.
DeleteYour cat is the under-boss!? Crikey. not at ours. The cat (Dixie) is definitely in charge and the dogs know their place , as do we.
ReplyDeleteIn spirit he's the boss, but in size he's obliged to take 2nd place. Not that he would admit to it.
DeleteI love your colourful home. It looks so cosy and very friendly. I am jealous of that drawer - I don't know what you call that furniture in English.
ReplyDeleteGreetings Maria x
It's called a 'dresser'; some also have an upper part with shelves. It's extremely heavy.
DeleteThank you. X
