Hey Bob

I'm off to the local supermarket then, I might be a while... Do I need milk? Better check before I go.

Thank you Robyn

I will have to see about getting a tune for it.

That's a ripper. It really would make a great country song. Why don't you send it as a lyric to some of the country recording artists like Troy Cassar Daley or Adam Brand etc. Good one John.

Thanks Wazza

I might look into doing that. I have a few other lyrics here that might be worth doing the same thing with. Glad you enjoyed it.

Regards

Thank you Sally

I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'm sure that love can't be all bad, especially if you have found the right person - it is just that finding that right person isn't always an easy thing and hearts can be broken in that process. I'm not giving up on love just yet myself :) (At the rate I'm going, I might be in a nursing home by the time I find it though :lol: ).

All the best

I'm glad you enjoyed it Mal

The things I post on Facebook are generally only open for my Facebook friends to view only - I can see the risks with putting things to public view in that sense (I can only think of one exception, the short poem I use in the 'About Me' section).
