Very emotive write Fay, such a tragedy that this happens to some sea life.

My dear Fay,
A beautiful emotive write!
The pic reminds me of my maternal grandparents’ cottage in Italy! Beautiful childhood memories!
The thing I still remember is the smell of the gingerbread cookies baking in their stone oven! Yum, yum, yummy!
Unfortunately it doesn’t exist any longer! It was leveled to the ground by an earthquake...but the memories will live on!
Your words are befitting my memory of the visits to that cottage and of my grandparents!
“Love feels just the same.
Fond memories re-claim
The fun times enjoyed”...

Very moving. Indeed what scenes have been witnessed by the rooms we inhabit. Who planted the tree we fell in love beneath and why?
All fodder for the romantic poet of which you are a fine example as you take us again today into a romantic world of fondest memory.

HELLO FAY: Its 7am here in AUCKLAND (NZ) and I just getting ready for work. I have my first Physio Clinic at 10am (NZ Time). Your lovely Cornish Poem & Picture about Brother Sun made me smile. Its the middle of Winter here (10C = 50F) and showery but we do get some lovely Sunrises & Sunsets (due to the Clouds & Mountains). The temperature will rise to 14C = 57F this afternoon and we will get some SUN but no SUNBURN. Because Auckland is sub-tropical we dont get snow or frost in Winter in the North of N Island. It gets colder as you go SOUTH : CRAZY! BRIAN tells me youve been having a real Indian Summer up to 35C (95F) some days and up to 45C (113F) in Spain : God Forbid! Love your warnings about SUNBURN. Patients with REAL BURNS need a lot if PHYSIO but severe Sunburn can also damage skin and restrict movement. My Beloved BRIAN will be here on MONDAY MORNING (NZ TIME) I still cant believe it. Please pray for a safe JOURNEY : Love & Blessings ANGELA XXXX

BEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN FAY ~ Like Angela\'s poem a Sonnet of seven doublets. I love CORWALL ~ It has an air of the SUPERNATURAL. Pixies ~ Tintagel and The Spirits of Cornwall ! I love the story, your Poem relates, of the CELTIC PRINCESS ~ her presents to the SPIRITS ~ and their present to the Princess of Painless Childbirth ! We plan to visit the SW Coast next year ~ One always finds the unexpected ! Thanks for sharing ~ Yours as always BRIAN.

WOW FAY ~ This frightens me (don\'t let Angela read it !) is this really how many Housewives (in the 20th C actually comply & suffer & feel ? I\'ve never been married so I can\'t speak from personal experience. Angela & I (now we are engaged) share all things and decisions. It is hard for me ANGELA being in NZ for Year (at least) but we both agreed that it was an opportunity not to be missed ! Knowing something about NZ I was happy for her to go knowing she would be both SAFE & FAITHFUL as I would be in the UK ~ because we are both committed Christians ~ AMEN. My Parents are also committed Christians and their Marriage is based on Love and a 50/50 responsibility. My MUM is a Confectioner so she still baked lots of Cakes and baked and made Cakes for all occasions ~ so in effect she was able to raise a Family and maintain her trade. When we were all at School ~ My Dad was happy for her to do two days a week in a local Bakery. My DAD still does a lot in the HOME and only works (Newspaper Man) part time. When I\'m married I want to be just like my DAD ~ AMEN ~ Thanks for caring ~ Yours as always ~ Your FRIEND BRIAN ! PS. Angela loves my Dad and tells me I\'m just like HIM !

Is this lady now trapped by circumstance to continue? Love for those children spurs her onto conformity. What lesson does her sacrifice unknowingly teach?
On the face of it, so unfair, but ... so few facts upon which to make such a judgement.
A really needling thought provoking jab at married conformity today Fay.
