Horace said he would like a walk along the beach and reflect upon 2020.
I suggested to Horace that he bring a snorkel, what does he turn up with, a snooker cue.š·š
As Horace and I were watching the waves crashing onto the rocks we received a newsflash, there had been a leak from the AGM of our Village Synchronised Botty Coughing Club, it had been announced that Betty Beswetherick would be the new team Captain, though this decision was met with a favourable response, there were rumblings from some of the older members, brrrrrp, brrrrrp, brrrrrp.šØšØšØš
I would like to thank you all for viewing my photographs, along with the comments and general banter we have here on Flickr.ā„ļøš
You have heard me say it before but I will say it again, āa smile costs nothing, but it enriches those who receive itā.šš
Time and tide wait for no man: We have always believed that life is for living and enjoy every moment.ššš
As for the stories, whoops reportage, well in amongst the poetic licence there are so many situations that are absolutely true.š¤š
I like so many of you, am so looking forward to the day when we can all interact properly with each other again. I have always been so lucky to bump into some real characters in the course of my photography and these are the people who provide the basis of the reportage.š
I also feel very privileged when I go out that the beautiful playground of Cornwall is on the doorstep and it is such an inspiration for me to capture and share with you all.š
I will leave you in peace to enjoy the festivities, and I will see you again in January 2021.šš·
It just leaves me to say have a wonderful Christmas, a very healthy, happy and peaceful New Year. ššš š š»ššš

Raise your glass and we'll have a cheer
For us all who are gathered here
And a happy new year to all that is living
To all that is gentle, kind, and forgiving
Raise your glass and we'll have a cheer
My dear acquaintance, a happy new year...
Peggy Lee ~ My Dear Acquaintance (A Happy New Year)
Three granddaughters in three different plays, each written
by the campers. Each play ended with peace and happiness.
