Belated Happy Birthday to me

This is a little bit late in posting but I have been very very busy over the last week or so - however, did manage a few wines and some cake in Browns on George Street to celebrate.

Whilst you may all appreciate that I am "truly" independent! moreso than any judge in England & Wales, I am owned by Lucien (means 'bright light') or Lucifer when he is malfeasant! and pander to his every command.

I asked him to pose, so voila!

WHAT A DREARY WORLD IT WOULD BE

What a dreary world it would be
If there were no tales of Fantasy!
No Mister Rabbit, no Mister Mouse,
No Wicked Witch, no Mushroom House;
No Fairy Princess, Queen or King,
No Handsome Prince, no magic ring;
No gay Frog, no grumpy Toad
Who in dark ponds has his abode.
No castle turrets on a hill,
No fierce Dragon in dungeon chill;
No fairy ring in meadow green,
No Gnomes, no Elvins, to be seen;
These would be missed should this come true,
By all children, and grown-ups, too.
