The way things are going, it may turn out best to lock a rate in. Probably always best to limit exposure to insectiside. I hope he didn't get engaged to the omen, but if he did good luck!!

Re:
Well I have too preserve my natural modesty even if no one else does. Well I like it with blackberries and cream, but then I grow my own. Once I bought a cider press and thought I would make the olde rough cider, but I grew delicate after seeing the weevils in the apples, it still sits in the shed unused.

Re: Pat
Pat the trouble is we keep putting things in the freezer and then deciding we don't
like it much, well Arthur does and I let him cook the meals, I wish his feet would warm up again, but he had girls all ending when they wanted offspring. He wanted to stay and be the baby. I know I love watching the wind rippling through the ripening corn.

Well Kabu I have to give the goose a few exercises before it can get going in the morning. Stand it on its feet and encourage it to stagger off to the food trough. A bit like myself in a way, I hope the doc will give me some good pills on Nov 1.

Re: Taps
Thank you Taps I do live in a small town once sheep were driving up the high street and during the war as a boy I laid down in the middle of the road, just to say I could . Sometimes it was so deserted, and then those darned Yanks came chewing gum. The kids use to ask 'got any gum chum .' Of course the Yanks were only lads and good natured, no wonder the girls liked them.

I think its nice that you moan and groan and appear to be sympathetic. Not everyone will do that these days.
I always learn something about your way of life across the ocean when I read your poems.

Well if it had been me I would only sign it after they took the increase off before I signed any new contract with them. Or I'd find me a new supplier. Enjoy that apple pie, I would old chap.

C.C.
Such a wonderful chat. I loved the visits to the old guy who is younger than you and pretending to be sympathetic. I am angry. I am jealous that you can still drag bags of whatever across the field. I try daily to do those things I once did, I can't. You keep doing it or get that Arthur off his behunkas to help you. I loved the poem, I felt both sympathy and a new understanding for this man who feels like us ladies. God bless you, hope you have a wonderful day!

What a day, gift of a frozen pie? I'd store it in the freezer
until the need for it struck me. Loved the poetry in grass flowing like a river. Wheat fields always look like that when the wind skips across the wide golden expanse of them. As for the ring... I think what your character suffered was cold feet. very cold...
