A Terrible Moment.

Hi Everyone ~~ Well my weekend is over as it’s Sunday

evening and it has been quite a nice couple of days. BUT

My football team, Carlton could not win - AGAIN !!

Thank Goodness there is more to life than football, but

it is a major source of entertainment. And disappointment.

There is always next year !!

<><><> A story tonight called A Terrible Moment. <><><>

Her hair was in wild disorder. Her face was flushed, and her eyes flashing. She clenched and unclenched her fingers in

an agony of despair.

<><><>

Unless her looks belied her, she was a deeply injured and

desperate woman. Her indignation and anger were allied with

keen despondency.

“Cruel one; oh cruel one,” she cried, in anguished tones.

“I have borne with you too long ! You have injured me, you

have tortured me, and yet I could not bear to give you up.

When first we met,” she continued, “how your ease and

polish attracted me ! When you became my very own, how

my friends envied me ! But your understanding is too small

for my large soul. You have ruined my standing in society.

If we had never met, I might have walked in peace. So now

begone ! We part for ever ! ”

<><><>

There came a moment’s compulsive breathing, a gritting of

teeth and a sharp cry. It was all over. By an almost super-

human effort, she had pulled off her new shoes.

<><><> Indeed – A Terrible Moment. <><><>

<><><> 10 Chocolate Rules. <><><>

1. If you’ve got chocolate on your hands, you’re eating it

too slowly.

2. Chocolate covered sultanas, cherries, orange slices and

strawberries all count as fruit, so eat as many as you want.

3. The problem: How to get 2 blocks of chacolate home from

the shop in a hot car. Solution: Eat it in the car park.

4. Diet Tip: Eat a chocolate bar before each meal. It will take

the edge off your appetite and you’ll eat less.

5. If calories are an issue, store your chocolates on top of

the fridge. Calories are afraid of heights and they will

jump out to protect themselves.

6. If I eat equal amounts of dark chocolate and white

chocolate. This equates to a balanced diet.

7. Money talks. Chocolate sings.

8. Chocolates have many preservatives. Preservatives make

you look younger.

9. Question: Why is there no such organization as Chocolates

Anonymous? Answer. Because no one wants to quit.

10. Put “eat chocolate” at the top of your list of things to do.

That way, at least you’ll get one thing done.

<><><> And lastly a quote …. <><><>

Women and cats will do as they please and men and dogs should

relax and get used to the idea !!!
