Many thanks to SHOW US YOUR BLOOPERS for the honour of featured member and congratulations to all the other featured works and members.
Many thanks to VAVoom for featuring WHAT WOULD YOU CHANGE
I am honoured and appreciative to the hosts of both groups for their time and work they put in.
My apologies to all my RB friends for my spasmodic efforts in visiting and commenting and replying to your works and your recognition of my works. The past two months have been taken up with a few happenings that has left me with mixed emotions of exhileration and profound sadness, compounded by the effects of a flu that caught me off gaurd. Firstly, the exciting news is that Beth and I will be travelling in 10 days time to Paris, Venice, Vienna, Budapest, Turkey, and Bangkok and will be absent until November. As it may be difficult to keep in contact with RB during this time I will try and visit from time to time to say hello. Although this for me is a trip I’ve been wanting to do for a while now it isn’t without some sad elements. Our neighbours, who are family as well, will be leaving the neighbourhood and our return back home will be met with an absence that will leave an emptiness in our lives. We’ve also just received some devestating news that a dear friend has been diagnosed with advanced ovarian cancer, a week before she was to depart for Europe herself. I’m feeling a little numb, dear friends, and tears are little comfort, but life goes on, as it must. So…..I will say my farewells for now. Keep in good cheer and love one another and try and accept change with grace and thankfullness. Much love to you all.
Cos xoxo

What a mixed bag for you to sift through Cos …..best deal with what you can and face what yo cannot when you can …hmm I know saying the same thing but from different sides of the fence ;O)
And enjoy the moments of your adventure! …..as if I really have to do that me thinks :O))
Will look forward to hearing about your time away and all the this brings to you and your muse.
Much love to you ….. a red bubble postcard is certainly something to look forward from you.xxx

May you and Beth have a glorious, wonderful and safe trip. I know it will be a reflective one also, for there will be much to be learned, and enjoyed, while in rest, your thoughts will surely go back to your friends about how they are faring. We will miss you, but happily say, “Go on and enjoy!!!!” Just bring back photos.

Cos, I hope that this trip brings you great joy and peace. I’m sorry for all the sadness that has entered your life, but I’m happy that you are getting to do something you’ve wanted to do for a while. I hope you have fun. You’ll be in my thoughts.
Safe travels. < 3 < 3 < 3

You are in my thoughts Cos and I feel for you an Beth during this particular trip on life’s roller coaster..may the high be uplifting and memorable and my your lows be bearable and spent in the company of those you love.you are such a special and loving man and sadly this also means you feel pain deeply too…only those who don’t care deeply don’t feel the pain of loss. i have received much comfort from you and your wisdom gained through such pain and hope you also have many moments of comfort and joy sprinkled around the pain. many hugs and see you soon.Hopefully I will have gotten to comment on some of your new work by the time you return :)Vxxxooo.

Ohh… I’m feeling for you Cos, those mixed emotions can make life a blur and torment you from the conflict. I hope your trip brings you much joy. Look after yourself Mate (and Beth too)
Therese M Smith
