    I wouldn’t swap my OH for all the tea in China. (May consider coffee though if prices continue to rise )
    She’s got more emotional intelligence than anyone I’ve met, subscribes to the philosophy - ‘If you can’t say something positive, then don’t say anything’, and sees the good in everyone.

    Having said that I do wish she’d make more use of the veg I grow, but I suppose if she was picking garden beans she wouldn’t have quite so much time to spend on caring for human beans.

    Am I lucky or what !?

    What a beautiful picture Dave.
    Yes, it does work out for some people.
    When Mr A asked me to marry him he said - marry me and I promise you will never regret it. I never have . :luv::luv::luv:

    Hi Daisy

    Mrs Chopper has done a portrait of me in my club colours. It has been entered in the BP Portrait Awards at the National Portrait Gallery. She has about 48 books published on Natural History and tourism. She did all the illustrations. They are better than photographs.

    Last year (Sptember 2009) she did a huge painting which has every member of my club in it. The painting measures 8 feet by four feet and is hanging on the clubhouse wall. She has done numerous portraits for club members and is working on another one of me with my chop. I will post a picture when she has finished it. The detail is amazing.

    Yesterday afternoon Mrs Chopper decided she wanted to some painting, so got a new canvas and dug out some photos of my youngest stepdaughter who is a proper little heartbreaker. Couple of hours later, one stunning portrait of the little madam. It is now hanging on the wall in the hall and catches they eye as soon as you walk through the door.

    Very clever lady and incredibly modest about her talent.

    Chopper.


    Chopper.
