  1. Love it, Lynda. So true to life – men really do dig themselves in deep when they are trying to be reassuring. So far my husband hasn't been as unfortunate as George, but it could still happen!

  2. Lynda – that's me above! I seem to have input xx somewhere, sometime and now it keeps putting that and I can't change it. Sally-Jayne

  3. Ah those good intentions! And how misplaced they can be sometimes. A really good observation!

  4. Beautifully observed and so true. I hope George survived the frying pan.

  5. ooops poor George, he had the best intentions there. x

  6. Unfortunate George, savvy enough to tell what she's thinking, but not savvy enough to escape her wrath. Nice transition.Robin

  7. Oh I so understand how that feels. I love the frying pan bit. George was very creative with his descriptions! Bless him!Thank you so much for finding the time to join in!
