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!
Was that for real, or is it such a regular occurrence that no one takes any notice any more?
ReplyDeleteI hope it was genuine. I doubt if he had a real gun, so probably no-one bothered.
DeleteThis demonstrates the mentality: "I do not want to get involved."
ReplyDeleteI think he was simply a silly young boy attempting his very first 'hold-up'.
