I am always pleased when anything i write causes people to send an interesting reply. I do realise that a lot of what I write doesn't merit any reply (like my blogs about Nature for example.)<br />So thanks for replying.The Weaver of Grasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947971556343746883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-17162065125828263322013-05-06T01:19:32.326-07:002013-05-06T01:19:32.326-07:00Ed Miliband.

Every bag, box and drawer of 'stuff' is being looked into and thoroughly edited! It has already taken several days but will be very worthwhile when I've finished.<br />I sat in the garden for a couple of hours this lunchtime - it is a glorious day here and not to be missed.<br />I leave writing to those who are good at it and content myself with, hopefully, correct grammar and spelling.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06826501916623305535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-51451312710266432802013-05-05T05:26:59.781-07:002013-05-05T05:26:59.781-07:00John Le Carre is wonderful - he knew what he was w...John Le Carre is wonderful - he knew what he was writing about and I love that cat and mat story.

The twins first words?<br /><br />I find there's a growing tendency toward glibness. And, I have to say, preaching from one's own own pulpit.<br /><br />But then who am I to say? Like the farmer I plough my furrow the way I will. Text book unread or gathering dust perhaps.<br /><br />Maybe another man with a French name had some advice for us: <br /><br />There is a greater difference between one man and another than between two animals of different species. -- Michel de Montaigne.<br /><br />In the end, it's each to his own. <br /><br /><br />Gwil Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03305768121713053837noreply@blogger.com
