I asked him why the hell did he come to an island for Christmas celebrations, then, knowing that there would be a happy crowd in attendance and an island - shock-horror - was surrounded by water - and I had to ferry him across said water so that he could mingle with said happy crowd!!! <br /><br />That kind of left him speechless! And the story doesn't end there...that was only the first paragraph of the first page of the first chapter of the book! ;)Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15835982875620956300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27914104.post-87498524558194550972011-12-09T11:46:31.380-08:002011-12-09T11:46:31.380-08:00Wow, looks delicious.

If I'd lost it, I would've lost control of everyone and everything! So with a smile on my face, disguising my gritted teeth...onwards, forwards and upwards! ;)<br /><br />Good to see you, Serena...thanks for popping by.Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15835982875620956300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27914104.post-1882640559789971672011-12-08T19:29:04.604-08:002011-12-08T19:29:04.604-08:00Robbie!!!!

I've never experienced a cyclone, but sounds like you had everything under control.
