Italy's hairy-armed Mussolini (above).
And England's fun-loving fashion icon Mick Lynch.
They could almost be identical twins!

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 see the bad moon a-risin'
ReplyDeleteI see trouble on the way
I see earthquakes and lightnin'
I see bad times today…
Have fun.
I'm already having fun; see above!
DeleteOne made trains run to time and the other prevented the same, not that I believe either.
ReplyDeleteTotal opposites but both radicals.
DeleteSorry but I can't see any resemblance. And in relation to their world views they are poles apart.
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).
