    Thanks River and yes, I do remember Jim Reeves very well and his great voice.
    That is a lovely song and speaking of old Christmas cards, I used to keep cards for years until back in about 2012 I threw nearly all of them out except for a few from people long gone. One special card was from my dad way back in the 1960s (he died in 1971). That is one I kept along with the last one form my mum.
    Thank you too for the Christmas and New Year wishes which are returned to you 100%.

    Lee; he's very easy to listen to, with your feet up and eyes closed.

    Mimsie; I thought you'd like this one. I used to keep cards too, found a box of them when I moved last, so cut off the picture part and put them all in the box going to Vinnie's, the message sides I threw in the bin.

    I've just this minute sat down after baking 4 dozen mince pies.

      My mother used to make the most delicious mince pies with really short pastry. I think you are wonderful baking so many. I have to be honest and say I have never made even one in my entire life. I did make good sponge cakes though when I was a youngster. (*:*)

      I'm good with sponge cakes too and don't understand how people can say they're too hard to make. My recipe is so easy, my kids mastered it by high school age.

Words for Wednesday

Image
 The original Words for Wednesday was begun by Delores and eventually taken over by a moveable feast of participants when Delores had computer troubles. Sadly, Delores has now closed her blog forever due to other problems. The aim of the words is to encourage us to write. A story, a poem, whatever comes to mind. If you are posting an entry on your own blog, please let us know so we can come along to read it and add a few encouraging words. This month the words/prompts are supplied by River (that's me) and can be found here This week's words/prompts are:  1. on the run 2. belong 3. street 4. breakfast 5. tent and this image: taken by "Genius" and allowed by Val . Also Charlotte's colour of the month which is Orient Red for September.

Sunday Selections # 691

 Long ago, Kim of Frog ponds Rock, (who no longer blogs), dreamed up a meme called Sunday Selections.  A place where those who were willing could put up photos they wanted to share, new, old, good, bad or indifferent, any photos you please.  Nothing rude or vulgar though. And we don't mind at all if other bloggers care to join us. The meme is now continued by Elephant's Child ( https://myjustsostory.blogspot.com.au) and I join in as do a few others. Andrew (https://fromthehighrise.blogspot.com.au) is one.   Messymimi (https://messymimismeanderings.blogspot.com) is another. Drop in to their blogs and have a look,  Wisewebwoman has also been joining us occasionally. Lola snoozed on a cushion so covered with cat hair I'm surprised the stripes are still visible while I heated up leftover home made pizza for dinner a fold-out bunch of flowers card from "no-one" for Mother's Day, no watering needed and they will never die.
