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!
Hope you have an uneventful trip. It will be good to know someone has been looking after your property while you have been away and you can get straight into party mode.
ReplyDeleteGood roads and a happy homecoming
ReplyDeleteSafe journey, Cro.... honk the horn as you pass us [halfway down France, near Descartes]....
ReplyDeleteSat24 is showing sunshine atm and the forecast is for more of the same....

ReplyDeleteAre you driving a right-hand drive car with British plates?
