I went walking here a few months ago, it was covered with snow, but there was a bare patch of ground at the top - the thermal warmth of the mountain had melted it.

Very nice!

Hi Kiwi,

Just revisiting my old blog haunts and thought I come on to see how you were...

Bad - you haven't added an entry for months (as bad as me!) but worse is that your very last post was having to reply to a dumb cheap shot at you - I'm not sure what his/her problem is :-(

Anyway - hope you are well and it would be good to see you back!

Take care

Ian

Smoking !

Yeah ! You're right ! Luckily I stopped upon having diagnostic of progressive deafness at 33 !!!

Can you imagine at 54 having spoken French since I was 14, and smoking since 16 ? ! my mouth would be like a dry prune or a cul de poule ! (chicken's ass tranlated) !
LOL ! LOL ! LOL !

It seems you're not allergic to free thinkers.. then ! How wonderful !

See you ! Go back to painting !

Whoa - what an interesting life you have had!

What you say about speaking French - that is fascinating - I have never thought about it before - but I think you are right about the way you must hold your mouth 'narrow'. It must get very tiring. I can imagie it would cause wrinkles - like smoking. I wonder if that is why Brigitte Bardot pouted so much? Seriously?

Anyway you have some very original and interesting ideas! I like that. You are not weird - you a free-thinker. I look forward to reading your blog some more.

Best wishes,
Kiwi XXX

THAT'S THE BEST NEWS I'VE HAD AND WILL HAVE FOR THE DAY !!!!

I mean it ! I'm not kind. My comments are not just kind. They are felt ! heartedly felt !

Will sit and wait for your new painting views and others of course !

I'm stuck in my village in provence because of a bad repair on my car and new breakdown (three times crane ? pulled in 2 months). Now there is the experts boxing while i wait... But that got me finally back to my friends and i not miss my car anymore...

I'm now waiting not my car but your paintings !!!

sweet kiwi, so deep and wide !

thanks XXX

Oh ! From 10 to 14 yrs old iIwas in an American school in .... Rome. English took power over Spanish, my mother tongue but I married a Frenchman. English is raising up again since about a year !!! It's a true personal language for me in my story, unlike French... Funny ! Perhaps I was just too old when I learned French... I apreciate for its richness and "nuances" but too narrow around the lips when you pronounce it, "genre cul de poule" ? It's not mean. That's how I feel it inside. In fact, I find French women get wrinkles around their lips earlier than other nationalities... Never mind ! I'm weird but I like your blog

Thank you so much! You are very kind - I appreciate your encouragement.

Your English is very good - I teach English language and I can see you are a very good student.

Thanks again for your comments.
I will start painting again tomorrow.

LOL LOL LOL
fun to start back on blog friends trails ! This conversattion really made me laugh ! comme quoi ! Funny how eye gives different views, which i rark are kiwi's speciality (just came from other viewiev posts...

"What's that , Gooseberries ?"
I went up to see picture again, thought my vocabulary is poor but could be just green grapes which in French are white... Could not be ! so maybe Hmmmm tropical we call "mamoncillo" in Cuba ? Strange. I go back to see the artist's answer.... LOL

"Green grapes !"
and then, Moondancer, "LOL, of course !"

Great ! Reeeealllllly great ! A big moment in my day.

I wanted to compliment....tate (?) say "Bravo !" to the artist I just saw 15 yrs ago and am glad to move to 10 yrs ago !

I now still say "More, pleeeeease !"

Good day or night to both of you !

Just sheep sounds fine to me! What's an island going for these days? Are there any building regs? Would one be allowed to set up a small sanctuary for retired PE teachers? bs

That painting is very beautiful, I'm impressed! It has a very expressive atmosphere, and especially the color composition prooves that you have taste and imaginative power.

Hi there

i thought it was the bunnys that he had brought. hopefully he will get them on the right track next season. theyve got sean mcrae as thier coach havent they, he was really good when he was coaching here in england.

found it interesting a few years ago that they had to go to court to remain in the NRL despite the fact that they quite clearly wernt good enough.

he is a twat, was really rude to my nice Ex at a party once, also only drinks Fosters when everyone is on champagne, get over yourself hunney!

Yeah - he bought the Rabbitohs (South Sydney)- a team that has languished at the bottom of the table for years. He has always been a Rabbitohs supporter though from before he was a 'name, and hopes to revive the team's fortunes and inject a bit of oomph!

That's the strange thing - I DID make it up - I did art at high school but I've never been to an actual art class since. Tee hee! Funny eh? Thanks for the invite to be pals - I've gladly accepted.

In response to:RANGITOTO

Tue, 04 Apr 2006 12:52:35 +0200

Yes, wow i thought you had just made it up thats why i was so shocked when i saw it but maybe if you did it in art class then, maybe its something they like to teach people, its a very nice painting though.

In response to:RANGITOTO

Tue, 04 Apr 2006 10:47:30 +0200

Thanks so much Millie Kitty! You are very kind! Funny about you painting the same thing at school eh? It must be a classic art class thing or something? Cool to think of people at opposite ends of the earth painting the same painting!

Tue, 04 Apr 2006 09:46:47 +0200

Wow nice painting, i had to do one like that in school, we were given insructions to paint a table with fruit on it and at window with one curtain and on the outside do palm trees! Just like yours! The volcano is beautiful!!!

Tee hee - he does look a bit smoother than usual doesn't he? The thing with him is that he's got these chubby little legs which sort of stop him from being truly macho.

In response to:RUSSELL CROWE

Tue, 28 Mar 2006 12:25:53 +0200

he looks so cool i almost didn't recognise him!

In response to:RUSSELL CROWE

Tue, 28 Mar 2006 01:40:43 +0200

Yeah - he comes across as a bad boy doesn't he? He does seem totally careless of what people think of him - and that is always kinda cool. As long as it doesn't result in anti-social stuff - and Russ just stays within the boundaries - just! But he's a cocky wee lad!

I like his no care attitude, but I guess you tend to get that if you live in a beautiful country.
