11TH DAY OF THE 11TH MONTH....REMEMBRANCE DAY- AND MY BIRTHDAY!


LEST WE FORGET....may we always honour our brave men and women of the Forces...past, present and future...

I do have Chapter Three of my Singapore Fling almost ready to be posted...I was going to do so today...but the best laid plans of mice and Scorpios....

It's my birthday today...so I've been waylaid!  I was born on the 11th hour, too...actually, around 11.05 am!

In the words of Scarlett O'Hara..."Tomorrow is another day!"

  1. Happy, happy birthday.
    And I would love it if the day comes when we only need honour our past Service men and women.
    Yes, I know, I am a dreamer.

  6. Thanks very much Lynn and Pat.

    I did have a very nice day...in the words of Paul Anka/Frank Sinatra..."I did it my way"....I spent most of the day talking on the phone. Good friends rang me and we chatted at length...it was great.

    I even made myself a rich, dark chocolate cake and drenched it in chocolate ganache...I'll live on it for the next year, I think! lol

  11. I went to Singapore.
    I went to Raffles.
    I asked to go to the Writer's Bar.
    But, because I was wearing sandals, they wouldn't let me in.
    Sniff.

  14. Oh! Cosmo...I'm so pleased you went to Raffles...sad, however, that you didn't get into the Writers' Bar...you would have loved it, I am sure.

    Great to have you back. :)
