Posted by hugh macleod at October 2, 2006 3:18 PM | TrackBackFor a 12 carat solitaire diamond ring and a Ferrari, I just manage to get my woman to switch on the dishwasher!
For a bag of oats, a warm stable and a change of hay, I get to see Berkshire & Oxfordshire as it is meant to be seen. In the fresh air from the back of a pedigree horse worth millions!
What respite from an old nag does a Ferrari and a ring bring?

I love your work! As I approach 40 (next year), maybe I have become a romantic....
Perhaps as a class, women are expensive and more trouble than they are worth. But, when you meet that one - Take my word on it, there is nothing you would not spend, nothing you would not do......

P.S. Is Paris really the city of lights?

I'll quote you on this one.
