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!
This is a daily, optimistic, 'photos and comments' blog. I make no judgements (only occasionally), just notes. If you wish to comment in any way at all, please feel free. Everything and everyone (except the obdurate and dictatorial) is very welcome.
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!

ReplyDeleteTotal opposites, but they could be twins.
DeleteI think Mike Lynch is quite dishy;) Able to hold an argument succinctly. We always need both sides of an argument to understand a truth.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't know about him being 'dishy', but I do know that he causes a lot of disruption for political reasons.
DeleteI have heard the name Mussolini, but that is all I know. Never heard of the other man.
ReplyDeleteConsider yourself fortunate. Both nasty bits of work (which you can probably guess).
