If the Cap Don't Fit .. & .. Glare

Neville

If the Cap Don’t Fit

 

No matter how old, or how brave, how strong, how right or how

   wrong, if the cap doesn’t fit, then don’t try to force it ..

You’ll just wear the bloody thing out, so why not hand it to some other

   poor sod who may benefit more and might even wear it ..

 

 

Glare

 

Because

it now hurts

so much

to see ..

He no longer

fears

going blind ..

But

nevertheless,

he still

remembers

to this

very day

the moment

his

whisky sour

turned

bitter sweet,

under

the glare

of her

baby blue eyes ..

    But if you is still 'ere, can't be nothing much wrong with your PC...

    However, technical issues aside, your premium page entry here does highlight a common phenomenon, to whit promotion or elevation to a level above the proud wearer's level of competence..... Economic considerations sometimes complicate the issue......

    Thanks for the freebee, Neville. ๐Ÿ˜Š

      it would seem there were windows, but I was always being locked out of them .. am hoping the bugs have been sorted .. cost enough ..

        Yeh - my PC Doctor charges like a wounded bull, but what can I do?

        Wishing you trouble free web movement (for several months??)

        Almost got me Neville I think I have left visual field neglect. Almost missed the two for one special. Hats I have many and switch them all the time. I have to admit that some don't serve me well and I don't look good in others so I pass them off there are even some that I keep and don't wear. As for that whiskey sour I love em and hate when they are too bittersweet, Nicely done.
