One day...<br /><br />A virtual coffee table book: that's a good way of putting it. I've noticed that when I and presumably others come across a new blog I do a quick scan,and because of that time business, don't go much beyond the post of the moment. The occasional stumble across older posts and also the realisation that most of us don't get read much to start with, made me aware of all that effort going unappreciated. Since my husband's death I have found it hard to read books and even magazines, so for the time being you are my reading material!<br />Well I should have guessed we are about the same age with music references and talk of print photography.

I really haven't seen many comments on any post older than three or four days. They seem to have short shelf life for most readers. Understandably so, in today's BUSY world. And I noticed in your profile where you said you were born in 1960; and I raise a virtual glass to you, for me too... January. It was a very fine year I think...<br />:-)Owenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12622587942009516590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5799638417693921581.post-91236103062520984662011-09-11T02:28:29.393+12:002011-09-11T02:28:29.393+12:00Sounds like a lovely place... although I'm sur...Sounds like a lovely place... although I'm surprised you didn't run into the Saj there, if there is wine to be tasted, she couldn't have been far away. The mention of gardens in England made me think of a magical place we visited a few years ago, the lost gardens of Heligan, not far from Falmouth. Which could also be called a garden that is not a "trying hard" kind of place, just naturally fabulous.Owenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12622587942009516590noreply@blogger.com
