Both you and she deserve better. Give her a call! - I remember a distressing number of women like that, decades ago, who've now died. But I'm 81.
.... I dont believe everything I read, it doesn't stop me from enjoying some of it though .. or writing it .. congratulations ...
Neville
Thoughts in the middle
when reading old scribble
you know the crack
you can never go back
just sit in a corner and dribble
.............. Ha .. thanks for both the visit and for reminding me DA .......... Cheers, N 🙂
I cannot get it - don't any of you have rich and cherished memories?
................................................. Maybe you just need to read more
Those 'scribbles' of the past can bring back such fond memories.

Love it Neville.
.......................... Many thanks Michael ................ you can tell I'm moving, cant ya .........
Ahh, you mean you had a speedboat? What would I know? lol.
Or - again, should I meet this lass?!
............................. My Father was a boat builder Orchidee .. I had several crafts over many years, including a pontoon called 'Twenty-one Up' ............................................. Cheers

I think anyone can relate to this write of fond reminiscing, for something we once assumed would ride - ever high, in that highlight reel of our lives landmark mementos...
a wonderful read my friend, delectably worded with that touch of graceful subtlety, you weave so effortlessly
... welcome words indeed and from one who sees beyond looking .. many mighty thank you's my friend ...
