Life's Too Short To Wax A Lemon


















But I'm sincerely wishing fellow blogmate Kaz all the lemon-waxing time in the world. If you've never visited Kaz (Idler), she is one of the wittiest, most stylish and youngest pensioners around who takes her inspiration from AbFab's 'Patsy' but there's so much more to her than that.

Kaz is currently battling ovarian cancer, so is sometimes too weak to blog, but appreciates all your messages of support, so please do pop over and pay her a visit.

And if the more religiously-inclined among you would like to pray for her to confound her doctors with a spontaneous remission of miraculous magnitude, I'm sure she'd appreciate that too.

However sometimes our endlessly merciful Lord does have his limits....

In triplicate should be enough for anybody, even Him upstairs.

Totally concur with your post. Hear hear.

But would the powers that be really be mad if more than three petitions were submitted ? Sounds like many more need to be entered...

And odd, I just heard a recording yesterday of Jim Morrison of the Doors proclaiming to a concert crowd... "You cannot petition the lord with prayer"

PS and just noticed Jimmy Bastard's blog in your blog list; sure am wondering what happened to Jimmy Bastard...

How cool that you had your camera with you when you spotted that sign!
I think I would sit there and fill up the whole box, just 'cos I could!!

You are right, she is witty and stylish and a beautiful person. Nobody deserves cancer and she is in my thoughts and prayers.

That's a good way of looking at it Steve. Let's send our good wishes to Kaz in triplicate!

Owen, you are probably right. There is probably some sort of PCN (Penalty Charge Notice) on high for bothering the big G too often. Administered by Northampton County Court no doubt.

Naughty, naughty, Sagittarian. And don't sell yourself short. You capture quite a number of unmissable signs and scenes yourself so I doubt you are often caught short without a camera.

Thank you Teeni. I guess you of all people have the closest idea as to what she's going through, poor Kaz.

Life is so bloody unfair, eh Laura?
I popped by Kaz for a while.
I do hope the Invisible Cosmic Housekeeper (who is rather slow-witted if it takes 3 requests for her to do the one bloody thing)fixes what ails our Kaz.

Thanks WWW - our Kaz has a lot of people rooting for her so fingers crossed, eh?
