I wonder whether MrM could come to demonstrate?<br /><br />When I first met Mr DC's parents I was very nervous, drank slightly too much wine (I was very young and not used to acohol) and knocked over a long stemmed, very expensive wine glass. That set of glasses is now in my cupboard, passed on to us when my mother-in-law died, and I treasure the memory. And now I have remembered that, I miss her all over again.dottycookiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15295592896941235130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5831075779288351551.post-12842661022255945262010-12-01T08:50:47.852+00:002010-12-01T08:50:47.852+00:00PS - I should have added 'by his arms' in ...PS - I should have added 'by his arms' in case anyone is reading this too literally.

Only did it really to impress MrsM's younger brother who was rather short for his age and used to hang from the bannisters to make himself taller. Must have worked as he is now over 6' and taller than me. <br /><br />The things one has to do. I was more frightened of MrsM's father who is 6'5".MrMnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5831075779288351551.post-87783556299383755222010-12-01T06:37:27.086+00:002010-12-01T06:37:27.086+00:00I think I like Mr M even more after hearing that t...I think I like Mr M even more after hearing that tale.

You may want to delete this asap. <br />I remember taking my person who was to become my husband home to Hawaii. I remember a fun filled night with lots of drinks (not me, not then) and he who was to be so important to me, disappearing, only to fall asleep under the house and being attacked by many, many mosquitoes.<br />It all turned out well, my family loved him and here we are 40 plus years still together.<br />Now, we will wander still..I love the scene in BBC'S Cranford where they all have to go to their own bedrooms to consume their own oranges in private..(she who abhores..sp? the word suck)which leads me down another path about my Grandmother Emma, who came in the late 1800's to Hawaii. Emma was from Blo'Norton..we could never say that we were full at the dinner table. It was only correct to say that we had had an ample sufficiency.<br />She was a true Victorian..I may have been the only three year old who knew the term Vulgar. <br />Forgive the ramblings...love your words and poetry and I give you thanks for enriching my life.ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18245099394863979981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5831075779288351551.post-48983434041937502882010-12-01T00:20:51.691+00:002010-12-01T00:20:51.691+00:00Did he make a monkey face?
