This is too short to be called a proper post but I have to find out, am I the only one with such a childish sense of humour?
When I send messages to other lovely bloggers the words conjured up by the computer make me smile.
My latest was ' Vocatici'... very Latin I feel...
Maybe its just because I love words so much. I'm always looking up their exact meaning, or discovering their origins. One of my favourite old books is Skeat's Etymological Dictionary. How the urchins groan when I bring it out!
I know I'm a little eccentric but it seems quite normal to write on the walls of my house. I like to have my favourites there, in front of me, as part of my everyday life.
Please ignore the cobwebs in this one...
This one actually says...
This quotation is the last two lines from Andrew Marvell's 'To his Coy Mistress'
It's my carpe diem phrase.
