Bri, I am blown away by this. Is this really for me. If I could stop crying, I'd think of what to say. You wouldn't love me so much if you could see my red eyes right at this moment. This is the most wonderful thing I've read - I cant believe you'd written it just for me. Love you too. x

Hi, I wanted to download this so I could keep it in my handbag and look at it any time I feel uncared for but it's impossible to download. I suppose if it's put on as a posting I could download the printer friendly version, but then everyone would be able to read it - and it is mine, isn't it? I've got to go now, catch you later. Extra big thanks and heaps of love

Hi Scribbo,
Gotta be honest - I wrote this- or something like it a while ago in praise of generic Woman. But I "re-wrote" it just now, SPECIALLY FOR YOu . If you want to download it here's how:
Selectthe poem with your "mouse" then go to "Edit" and select "Copy".
Open "Word" or whatever your programme is for writing stuff. Click "New" then "Okay".
Place your cursor at the top of the page then select "Edit" again. Press "Paste" and there you go.
Let me know how you get on.

Ok. I'll do it later when somebody isnt about. I cant stop crying about it! David says he's never known anyone who cries as much as I do, over nothing. (I told him I'd read a poem on the site when he questioned whether I had a cold or something, keep blowing my nose!). He thinks I'm just pathetic, but I rang Sarah and told her too and she said 'How lovely.' So have a great day and I'll catch you later. xxx

Hi. I've stopped sniffing now. Feeling good again and full of fun, and just almost got stopped for speeding going a bit quick down the dual carraigeway with Status Quo blazing out of the speakers! Oh well! Catch you later! xx

Hi Scribbo,
I know you're fast, gal, and can well afford the fines, but watch that speeding down the motorway. Now I've found you, I don't want to lose you.
I got caught a few times when I was living in England, but over here, although they are starting to have those little road cameras, they don't really take it all that seriously.
The battery on my car is playing up at the moment - I hardly ever drive - walk everywhere - so it needs to be recharged from time to time. Bit like - well, never mind that - glad you're feeling full of fun and are rarin' to go. Say where and I'll make it happen.

Bri. Do behave. And I'm not responding to that last post on the word link - it's too obvious! But makes me feel good all the same! It's good to walk everywhere, I can walk to most places from where I live, but my pals tend to live a bit of a drive since we moved, except Jo. I can walk to her place. I dont usually speed at all, but today I didnt realise how quick I was going, but all I got was a ticking off. Anyway I could have turned on the water works on at the drop of a hat and it got me out of trouble the only other time I've been stopped. But the officer was really sweet and perhaps he could see I was about to burst into tears and just suggested I was a bit more careful. He looked about 12 years old - scary!
Just going to fetch some wine from the store. They've got some decent stuff at the moment on special offer and I dont have to go out again to drive today, so I may be slightly on a different planet when we speak again. xxxxx

You mean you're actually going to fly down here and see me?
Y'know, it's not just a different planet down here - it's a mini paradise. To qualify as a full-sized paradise, well, that can't happen until you actually arrive. Then we shall see.
I'm just off for a ramble and to cool down a little. Talk to you later.

Where are you now? Not still out walking I hope. Is it dark in France now? This is 5.15 in England. Why are you so far away?
David has just sewn a shirt button on and peeled the veg for dinner. This must be a first in fifteen years, but he can forget trying to collect Brownie points - he's never written me a poem, so he's out of luck!
I've had enough wine to ........well, I'll tell you later

Bribrow Posted Nov 28, 2004
Hi Sribbo,
Just finished cooking myself a meal, lamb chops with 4 veg and a rich gravy. No pud cos I want to stay slender in case you drop in unexpectedly.
We're an hour ahead of you down here. Gets dark about 5.30.
Oh, there's the oven timer going off. Must dash. Enjoy your evening. Talk to again soon.

Scribbler Posted Nov 28, 2004
This isn't good enough. I'm not interested in your dinner. I want to know what you've been up to today. I want you to talk to me. You cant just send me a poem and then push me away I want more from you! I told you I was demanding - now give! Or else!
?
Scribbler Posted Nov 28, 2004
And you spelt my name wrong You dont care about me any more
I'll try again in an hour's time, (8 o'clock our time) see if you're about. Do you know I'm supposed to be sharpening up my novel and I keep spending time on here, 'cos it's much more fun.
And you're here of course!
Sorry, can you tell how much red wine I've drunk today?
Are you disgusted with me?

Bribrow Posted Nov 28, 2004
Hi Scribbo,
I think I'm gonna wait till you sober up a little before I engage you in conversation. Not sure I approve of you in this mood.

Scribbler Posted Nov 28, 2004
Ok. Ok. I'm sorry. And I have sobered up now. I didnt have much really, but being small and having not eaten all day - you know how it is! I didn't drink all the bottle - just a couple of glasses. And it is good for your heart you know- medicinal purposes and all that! So you still mad at me?
?
Scribbler Posted Nov 28, 2004
Heh. I thought we were going to talk? You've been on and not left me a message. I wanted to have a chat before bedtime!

Bribrow Posted Nov 28, 2004
Hi Scribbo,
Sorry, I started writing and got rather carried away. Read it if you have time, "The Fisherman & His Wife" and let me know what you think. If you're still there, that is, I'll hang about for a few more minutes but its half past midnight here and as you know, I like my kip.
Bri xx
