Wounds and hardships provoke our courage, and when our fortunes are at the lowest, our wits and minds are commonly at the best.

- Pierre Charron

Whenever evil befalls us, we ought to ask ourselves, after the first suffering, how we can turn it into good. So shall we take occasion, from one bitter root, to raise perhaps many flowers.

- Leigh Hunt (James Henry Leigh Hunt)

Beams to you both

Well put Minks :-4 :-4

- Leigh Hunt (James Henry Leigh Hunt)Leigh Hunt? The chap who wrote Abou Ben Adhem? Nobody from the time of Job had so much thrown at him by fate, he started shaky, things got worse, every time he thought he could see light he got hammered back down. That's probably why he knew what he was talking about but I don't remember his optimism ever being justified.

Go for it, Almostfamous and Crazygal, but put Leigh Hunt on the back shelf.

Thanks a lot, sorry only just read this, been stuck in the other thread. I can't believe even someone who can be a right mean bitch sometimes, how so many of you can be so kind and offer such brilliant advice and support. As I just said to Jesse I wish I had posted here now instead of calling the SSS (Sh*tty Social Services). I love you guys so so much. You have all made such a difference to me tonight, I wanna jump through my screen and give you all hugs. :-4

I insist that she does an unexpurgated bellydance with all the backlit gauzy bits and finger-cymbals before we get to the end of this thread. I always wanted to see that done properly.

You're already marked 6.0 for Bashful Reticence but I've not filled in Style, Accuracy or Phwoar yet. If Jimbo says you're a wonderful and strange bellydancer that's good enough for me. I've even got some bongo drums if you want an accompaniment.

Somebody give me a place to stay PLEASE, I need to grab my boy and run. :-1
