Thanks Muser, for your kind comments..
- and I agree, it's motherhood and the maternal instinct that allows such instant bonding. The whole cycle of bringing up a family and living your life is one long process of discovery, which I am thoroughly enjoying (on the whole). I don't know, sometimes, how I stay sane, but I do... that motherhood thing again. If you can manage labour and childbirth, you can manage anything..:) Mostly.

I take your point (about the paragraphs) and have edited the work some more. But this isn't about place, so much as spirit. It's a state of mind - like New York :) I am going to be reading you too, to catch up.. I'm glad you are well again.

My theory, mneme, is that it is our maternal instinct that links us...all
women... together into a tightly knitted sisterhood. I love reading what you write...I cannot imagine any woman anywhere not being able to relate to your always beautifully written thoughts...I cannot imagine any woman anywhere not being touched by your words...
On a lighter note, aren't nail salons a great fun place to spend a hour or so? I usually wait , and schedule a manicure and pedicure when I need go to the salon for a haircut and or perm... a day of luxury! I love pedicures best of all. I'd cut my own hair...or never cut it again...if I had to choose between my hair and having a pedicure! Now THAT is something men should figure out...a spontaneous foot massage goes a long way into getting them into our good graces...foot massages on a regular basis might even assure them of being able to stay there!

Yes indeed, it's sad that males seem to lack this ability to respond and communicate so readily with strangers.
Phew! I just cannot imagine why anyone in full command of their senses would wish to set foot in England! I hate the place, and sadly, hated what the British had become, more and more, until I couldn't bear to live there any longer.
I'm not aware if you know it, but my wife and have lived in Andalucia for six years now, and altho' she sometimes goes back to visit family and friends, I have no intention of ever setting foot in that dump of a place again!
In England one exists ; in Spain one lives!
One small point ; your post would attract more readers, I'm sure, if you were to split them into paragraphs. many people in here won't read dense posts.
I enjoyed it, and I shall read you again, now that I am able to spend more time in Blogit, after my coronary adventures over Christmas last year.

Silly me! I thought a nail bar was where people, mostly men, went to select nails.
" I say, Julian, aren't these six inch lost head nails just divine?"
" Oh yes, Justin, but one must surely be entranced by the shimmering radiance of those three inch oval nails on yonder counter! Oh, my dear, such elegance! Such barely-concealed savage power! Oh, dear, I feel quite faint!"
