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!
Amusing but annoying. Now I've got O Paquador O Paqador on the brain.
ReplyDeleteWe'll all be singing it all day.
DeleteGreat ending, best bit.
ReplyDeleteA bit rough on the England team, but probably right!
DeleteHa-ha! Thanks for sharing this Cro! I just checked out a map of South America but could not find Paquador. Funny that.
ReplyDeleteI think it's been taken-over by China, it's now called No 76.
DeleteI'll have to watch that tomorrow. Right now my speakers are plugged into my playlist.
