Everyone seems to have seen through our cover and, as you say, we do not even have a decent pair of binoculars to see what is going on. Indeed with our poor eyesight it would be a wonder if we could see very much even with the binoculars!!!<br /><br />The views of the sea are lovely. Indeed, they are what sold the flat to us.

Lois is as happy as can be today, because she got a bit of recognition in school for her work, and a party invitation for Saturday. All else is now forgotten!<br />Thankyou also for your kind comments on today's post. Some friends of friends have a toast when they sit down to dinner, they raise their glasses and say 'aren't we lucky buggers' I suppose we are!<br />It's lovely to hear from you. I hope Lance is recovering well and you are perfecting your 'lazy tarting.'With much love to you both, Linda xxflowers on my tablehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11134447944633072349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8102162146315706774.post-72585216537724475572012-02-02T15:35:35.889+00:002012-02-02T15:35:35.889+00:00Palomasea:

I cannot wait to go to New York and re-enact Rear Window. It's being able to see all the life, and about having a wide view on things in the physical sense (you'd need one in the metaphorical sense as well, I'm sure, some of the things you'd see!).Doofushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15368086816490113661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8102162146315706774.post-41034733641144542092012-02-01T13:43:46.912+00:002012-02-01T13:43:46.912+00:00Emilie's Daughter:
