It still tickles me that I was google-chatting with Texas last night and the south of France this morning!<br /><br />I am a bit of a Facebook slut but it is never as personal as me dear old blog!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03665385782194826703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24425707.post-28310076557778453572010-04-30T20:45:09.341+01:002010-04-30T20:45:09.341+01:00HI again Minx,
Nice to see you show up and say hi...HI again Minx,<br /><br />Nice to see you show up and say hi at my place. You're very nice. <br /><br />If you ever wanna talk about your beliefs, you know where to find me. I'd certainly be interested. <br /><br />My wife has been to England but I have never been to the Old World at all. My farthest excursion was to southern Brazil once. <br /><br />The sense of *history* that I get when looking at your pictures there is astonishing. I'd really love to see your country. Over here if a building's a hundred years old it's ancient.... over there a thousand is young. In fact, it's been a long-standing desire of mone to see all of the UK. I'm half Irish by birth meself. The other half being Italian supposedly, although I don't look it at all... (adopted)<br /><br />I took a short look at your book on Amazon, because I apparently lack a browser that can open up your links to it. <br /><br />Hey, here's a thought; have you written about your personal beliefs somewhere? If so, drop by and give me a link or something, hopefully one I can open. Or email it to me; my contact email is on my mainpage. Along with my life's philosophy, for that matter. <br /><br />At 48, and having lived most of my life without the Internet, I find this time amazing, that such as this can happen, a conversation with a stranger across the Atlantic, or anywhere. I think the Interenet is a huge part of our next step in our evolution, at least our social evolution. It's surely a lot of fun. But it seems also to have the potential to solve many problems. The more the world communicates with itself, the more people will come to the realization that everyone's basically the same. It has the potential to allay much xenophobia. <br /><br />Best to you. Nice to 'meet' you.Saint Brian the Godlesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14902151482640409544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24425707.post-45355333433122649662010-04-30T11:12:28.296+01:002010-04-30T11:12:28.296+01:00Signs, the cottage is beautiful but it overlooks t...Signs, the cottage is beautiful but it overlooks the very busy ferry and has those monstrous ships hanging around in the front garden!

They can squeeze on about 30 cars and many more bikes or walkers. It takes a few minutes to get across and it is going from early morning to late at night - you can do the maths!<br /><br /> Rita, I suppose Cornwall is similar in many ways to the southern parts of Ireland (and to Brittany as well). <br />England is littered with funny little castles - we're a bit feisty and shoot at anything that moves!<br />The cottage has probably been captured by hundreds of artists - Kinkade should stick to his Disney shite.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03665385782194826703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24425707.post-18200566555269676622010-04-29T06:04:40.246+01:002010-04-29T06:04:40.246+01:00The "lil bit of beach" picture made me i...The "lil bit of beach" picture made me instantly think of James Joyce. I know it's not even the same country but I swear I saw that scene in my head as I was reading something of his...<br />The picture with the cannons, well, it made me think of a book I read about Haiti and Port-au-Prince, during the Haitian war for independence.<br />The king Harry Ferry picture, reminded me of a Murder mystery I saw on TV a long time ago. It was set in England.<br />St Mawes castle...James Joyce, again. <br />The ferry cottage...incongruous, the closest visual I come up with is a paintings by that horrible "painter of lite" Thomas Kincaid. His crap would never do that cottage justice.Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14706331228965193251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24425707.post-34435749864933362982010-04-28T21:51:30.523+01:002010-04-28T21:51:30.523+01:00Looks idyllic.
