Cora comes for a visit

A surprising, first time visit today, from my 2 year old grand-daughter - 'Miss' Cora Maeve. 
The most beautiful lips.

helping-out the service industry

Sometimes I can cause a little embarrassment when we go out - when I tell the people it's my birthday, when it's really not.  On the occasion, I might get a dinner coupon, or at the best, a meal half-off.  That way I can double-up on the tip for that 'poor' server, just to compensate.  But, my wife doesn't always understand the thought or the embarrassment.

Lawn Bowling - a game of finesse.  Just need a proper set of "bowls".  Just didn't get 'em low enough.

Holiday get-away - from the public drunkeness, race boat chaos and outright holiday hooliginism

We finally returned to the island of Useppa after 15 years .......
