I've now reached "All the sixes" !

      Yes, I'm clickety-click today!


Two pictures to represent my life so far. One taken recently, one a bit further back in my past. Now the question is - can you tell which is which? 





Okay, this is the answer. This one was taken yesterday...
........and this was NOT taken yesterday.

    'fraid not, A.M. He still spends all his sleep-time in my bedroom, day and night.

    Btw. If You think I'm "smokin'" hot now, what do you think of me way back then? Would I have passed the test? ;-)

      Many thanks indeed, Walt. Yes, you have to examine the pics very carefully to spot the change - but the clue is that I've got a few more crow's feet now. Does that make it easier?

      Thanks so much for your wishes, Stephen.
      That wallpaper was actually in my bedroom in Oxford (left by the previous tenants, but I liked it so kept it). Didn't help with getting to sleep though - but neither did all the action that that same room saw. In fact the wallpaper probably made the action even more exciting, if that had been possible!

      My gracious thanks to you for that, Dr Spo. I don't think there were choirs of the heavenly host greeting my arrival on earth - but, for all I know, there MAY have been. I'd have been more than happy with the sublimely joyous opening of the Bach Christmas Oratorio, complete with trumpets, drums and strings - though even that would have been denied me.
      Thanks for your wishes for the coming year. If the next calendar year of 2013 is an improvement on the current one I'll be very satisfied, 'cos this year has been the bummer year to beat all previous bummers!

      You'll get to know if it isn't, Dr Spo - but one can only hope.

      I'm happy and honoured to accept your good wishes, Mitch. Yes, I'm not yet over looking to get my 'kicks' wherever I can find them, even though the opportunities are closing off at an alarming rate. But never say die - literally, in my case.
