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!
Fabulous.....just listened to a couple more on tube! Reminiscent of " trad jazz" which I have always loved.
ReplyDeleteThey're all such good musicians. Not really my style of music, but I love the mastery.
DeleteWhere/who was the drummer? I could not see who made the clang. Yes, they all are great musicians.
ReplyDeleteHe looked like a cowboy; in sunglasses.
