That's the way it's going to be little darling



"We'll go riding on the horses"...ye hey "Way up in the sky little darling".."I will pick you up..." Love that song by Darrel Braithwaite, do you knaow it...then sing along with me.

Just skipping , I have heard from my dear freinds and we are catching up for coffee tomorrow across the road from the beach...although we will not be riding the horses...just letting the wind rip through our manes......(Yes mine is rather long at the moment, colour and cut next week) It will be lovely to catch up on all the news of their holidays and families ....although we stay in touch on the flickr, sitting down with a latte and swappping magazines does it for me...We have been in lock down since December with all the tourists visiting our little part of the world....can't wait to see Aunty Wendy,Jules, Little old flowers, Make believe and Adored before...We will be a flickin....stay tuned

Not a bad shot, I feel like the GreyGoosie( see my contacts on flickr) or maybe even Rachel Ashwell. I was feeling groovy at Mornington today..it is a big old shed stacked with Treasure...Gail Mc Cormack stores her things here too, but all was gone today as she was at the Market. There are lots of brown furniture pieces that could be freshened up with a lick of white paint....however...I spotted something my heart has been aching for for 6 years...stay tuned
