    Have seen pics of Beaus and Chicky before, so they are the pics in my head now. 

    Must admit you all didn't  look like the pics in my head either Soz. image

    I'll cut a long story short by saying I once got chatted up by a chap on the phone. Oooo that voice. Let's just say he was better looking on the phone. image

    Beautiful photos, I'm amazed that all those flowers are blooming now, I have most of those in the garden with not even a bud yet!  Must be so much warmer up there. 

    So please you all had a lovely day, and thank you for sharing the photos.

    Aww, PP,  .........years ago a chap who worked for my OH often used to ring him at home with work queries. 

    He had the most gorgeous and sexy voice I've ever heard. The picture in my head was definitely tall dark and handsome.image  I met him a few years later at a works do..........he wasn't tall or dark and he looked like a walrusimage  My OH was amused lol image

    Oh lovely pics Yvie! Everyone has shown a slightly different perspective, even when taking photos of the same things image.

    And Joyce, my grandmothers were born in 1900 and 1902, so I think you're way off on that one!
