As if there wasn't enough turmoil with the American elections and McCain v Obama with some folks saying Obama must be Muslim because of his name, others repeating the mantra that McCain is too old. Old for what? being Pres . is a hard job but the incumbent has gone along in it for about 8years and hasn't woken up yet, so what has age got to do with it.See, gone and done it again haven't I, just as you thought I would only talk about what I know I go and spoil the dream.
Getting back to the real world takes a lot out of one, a revelation next you ponder , perhaps.
I am actually not just a follower of all things American but in real life I am a closet Anglophile.
Yeah, creepy aint it.
No Hortense, that doesn't mean looking at old postcards from the souk, just means the poor fellow is a little dippy about England.Hortense, now don't be silly,it isn't the same at all, really woman you are wicked.
That I should like to live there about five months of the year is neither here nor there, and being that I am here and not there I should really explain why it is I would like to live there. Whoops !Best I stop, and just get on with showing why, for I am getting a tad confused with all the here and there, and you dear reader must be as well.
The English cities flux and change rapidly,the immense surge in migration from EU countries has seen massive change, but the English villages and countryside seem to be timeless and to me as someone travelling there on a regular basis, have a permanence which gives off a feeling of solidarity and home.
The English also do pomp and circmstance well , changing of the guard, royal weddings,divorces even and garden shows.
This year we got to see the Chelsea Flower show again, simply magic and the sort of thing the Brits do really well.

So these pictures, where? Not Chelsea? Looks too Hobbit-shire-y. But what do I know?
Giverny? No.
First one is magnificent of course. The three geraniums 'bout break my heart. And what's with the sweater? Drying?
Did you notice the lupines, bloody lupines?!!
