ReplyDeleteI have just found you & I feel like I'm a child again in my favourite confectionery shop where my mother would always buy me fairy lollies.(Darrell Lees. They still have them.) I need encouragement at the moment & I see you are maturing & have wonderful white hair. So do I.I also have just acquired purple reading glasses. As Bill Connelly says "When you get your winter plumage, You need a little colour". Personally I think there should be a lot of colour, no matter what your age. You encourage me. Thank you. Peta
