My parrot in his flight to take the boat on my matchbox was disturbed by the lovely fresh fruit and stopped.

Better seen large.

    Har har matey.. another renegade parrot eh….. he’ll have to walk the plank along with the others.. har har!!!! This is delightful Gilberte.. I love your sense of fun and humor.. combined with a still life talent that is simply wonderful!!!!

  • Thanks a lot Ken…I think I’ll not have him walk the plank as it was too much work to make him.I’ll hang him back on my wall.

    I do love your sense of humour!

  • I cannot always be serious Rosalie.
    My mother said:“Celui qui est toujours sensé, n’est pas aussi sensé qu’il ne croit” meaning:" he who is ALWAYS reasonable, is not as reasonable as he thinks"

    What a great quote Gilberte – I must remember that to excuse some of my eccentricities sometimes!

  • I went to a nun’s schooll…had to have our hands vowed like in prayer, on the desk, were not allowed to talk..when going to the playground or the chapel we had to walk the one behind the other with our hands on our back.We wore a black apron and black stockings etc etc Being a shy child, this regime did not help me.
    But it’s good to open the “soupape de sécurité” from time to time, not to explode.So you go for your eccentricities!!
