Bit early to be on the rum isn't it Roberto?

Yeah sometimes one has to sift through the detritus and trawl through the mire (rhyming slang = quick as a wit) to unearth some pearls of diamonds (ie. wise cracks) in amongst the seething froth of clicheville. And that journey - in hindsight - can be, at times, more rewarding than the destination . . . . . grasshopper

ps Broncos game kicked off at rum'o'clock this arvo, Heather

You are so wise grasshopper!

Actually I have been down at the venue getting set up for the Village Festivals Poets Breakfast tomorrow morning.

You know George Eliot was a sheila, Bob (not that there's anything wrong with that)

but I do like this one:

her little butterfly soul fluttered incessantly between memory and dubious expectation

I can relate to that....

Very much like: Life is anticipation tinged with remembrance! (no butterfly soul in that one though)

Ah! but what about: 'unearthing pearls of diamonds in amongst the seething froth of clicheville!' what a ripper! such words of wisdom could have come from the tomb of Solomon himself!
Thankyou grasscutter.. um grasshopper!!

I sense a cult coming on.....

Excuse me Heather, but culture if you don't mind!! (or is that Kulture? )
