Making Music

♀ ♪ ♂

I guess you know the symbols for male and female as they appear above. 

The musical note is about two people making music together. If yours is just a ditty, then ours is a full blown concerto, which has been playing full on since we met. I still can't believe how lucky I was in meeting Ash after you, and the way you treated me. No wonder you never held onto any of the numerous men in your life. The only reason you and he FM have stayed together so long is because you'd both be hard put to find another...now.

Yes, in one respect I have been extremely lucky to have met such a glamorous woman as my wife. You, as I am sure you will agree, are not in the same ball park when it comes to glamour and beauty.

Talking of beauty - take a look at this photo from our home in New Hampshire. I find horses really beautiful.





5BF is this a magic number, or merely the second part of something I posted in another blog?
Either way it is a pretty humdrum reference. 

Here are a couple more shots of my Aston. This is a new one bought over here this year. I'd had the other one two years and there were some upgrades on the new one, soooo....went and spent a six figure sum:) I can afford easily and life is too short.

There's also an interior shot of my Bentley in France. It's the executive model as we both do quite a bit of work while on the road...mainly Ash and her fashion stuff. You can see that I still have a penchant for cream interiors.

On our trip to Oz later this year we will be going via Singapore where we have an apartment, so here's a shot I took last year while we were there.

We are still here in London enjoying ourselves. Weather looks better at the weekend so we will leave Town for a root around England, back to some familiar places and homes that we have. Our next destination after that is Paris.

In case you might wonder. The TW accounts that you see for Ash and I are not our main ones. Sorry to disappoint, but we were never going to let you see those. Although I do transact some messages through the account you can see.

So, how is life with you? It seems to consist as usual of weekends and meals plus some shopping....and little else. Aren't you bored with that existence? You could write a food blog based on all those meals you have out. Guess the cooking at home isn't up to much then. We eat in a lot as I am quite a competent chef these days, undertook some training in France 3 years ago and have now appeared on TV (in the US) and been published in cooking orientated journals. Not bad for someone who could hardly cook 10 years ago - you can teach an old dog new tricks.

Life can be exciting and, for me at least, it is exciting, if not so for you. All the foreign parts I visit, the cars, the houses, the boats, the clothes, the plane and most of all our families. Three grandchildren so far and a fourth on the way - we love it and them all. It's great fun being a granddad and I am enjoying it greatly.

That boredom you once spoke of would never have existed with me, but you couldn't wait...could you. I recall you nearly returned in 2006, so it tells me the 'glue' between you and him is not that strong...you are just hanging in there because now there's no alternative. I did warn you at the time. I suppose family have something to do with your rather mundane lifestyle. Being tied as you are, and not the least part of which is a lack of wealth, must be hard.

Once you might have had my sympathy and understanding, but not now. I have not changed in the intervening years. It seemed to me that between 2003 and 2005 you did! Or, as I suspect, what happened with the other men was your true character all along.

I bet you wish you had followed what I said back in 2004 and 2005. Your life would have been very different - very upscale compared to your present existence. I know you believe that too. I guess you have grown comfortable, if that's the word, with your present 'life'. Never thought he would have let you work beyond 60, but there you go ma'am,. You always choose the 'wrong' ones. You never chose me...I chose you and that was the first and only time my judgment has been suspect. Quite sad, in some ways, when I look back.

Seems a long time ago now, but I write these blogs to remind you of what and where a little stupidity and poor judgment leads you........... and leaves you.

Talking of leaving - I will leave you with a photo of Ash on a beach 'somewhere' that I took a few years back. You never had a body like this and you most certainly never will now.






We will be in Sandbanks (Poole) and somewhere in Yorkshire, then the Lake District and Cambridge for a visit... the latter partly for business and partly to see old friends in the City. Also calling in on an old friend in Bristol...called Trisha. I'm sure I've mentioned her...more than once LOL.
