The Island Arts Centre was due to a spur of the moment decision and I didn't stay long. The pieces are falling into place for the 'chopping board' trip and I am hoping it won't be too long now. Glad to know the 'retouch' is there somewhere. I did say there was no hurry. Enjoyed the virtual hairy chest! ;) Davy,

What were you doing in the Island Arts Centre anyway? Sorry to hear the hip giving you bother, hope they don't keep you too long waiting on the 'chopping board' appt. I've not forgotten your photo-retouch either, been a tad busy though, must make a point of sorting that out soon. All the Hairy Chest ;-) Ack, you should have let me know you were in Lisburn, could’ve at least bought you a (good) coffee somewheres.

Take it easy for a few days. Unfortunately I associate cut flowers with illness and death, so never keep them in my house. I have been known to give bouquets away to those who will enjoy them. I do tell them my reason for passing them on. Magpie,

I knew a guy who bought one red rose for his wife on their first Wedding Anniversary. The second year it was two, and so the roses increased as each year went by. Forty five years later I think the florist is ready for a very comfortable retirement! Hugs are much better and cheaper! Hope you are feeling better. Magpie, :lol:

Do you do everything she says?" How do I answer that? I next got a lecture headed," You hug me enough any way!" I can't win..... I mean to say Lady Magpie says she can't get used to all this huggy lovey stuff, she wasn't brought up like that. I think she prefers flowers...but they're getting very expensive i tell her ;-) Well I did it… and was asked, “What’s that in aid of?” so I said “Grannymar told me to do it!”…”Oh, I see.

The hugs from a husband, a lover (hopefully those two are the same person) the hug of a child, a friend. Yes hugs are wonderful. They life the spirit. Beautiful photos. I am so glad you had your camera with you. By the way, Bob and I hug frequently. We both know what it was like before we met and how lonely the time can be when one has lost the love of their lives. We were so blessed with our marriage. . . we do not take this new opportunity of marital bliss forgranted. There are so many hugs to think about.

Too bad he was taken 50 years ago.
