More ABC………Q, R, and S.

Hello all…..here is some more of my alphabet. Please free free to comment on it and on any of the others you have read. Tell me what you think, suggest anything you would like views on and I will try and do it.

Q

Queen Elizabeth 2nd, Queen………

First of all the real Queen….the top lady. Whatever you think of the Royal family this lady has served this country well for many years. I feel that when the day comes and she leaves this mortal coil the majority of us will feel we have lost a family member.

Q – also stands for queens….drag queens and the queens who are amongst my wonderful gay friends and people in the public eye like Julian Clary, Rylan Clarke and Christopher Biggins. One well-known drag queen is the wonderful Nikki Nightingale and his friend Coco Chanel who I know very well.

R

This is hard…..R is for Roses chocolate which as a diabetic I should not eat but I do like a walnut whirl or strawberry creams. More roses……..a beautiful flower…..my favourites are red ones. Hubby is a wonderful rose grower and we always have a good show out our front in the summer

S

Sheila, the sixties and shopping lists…….first of all is my wonderful friend Sheila….who I met over 30 years ago through a magazine letter I had sent to a Mother/Baby magazine. She was one of the ladies who wrote to me and even though we are very different. Over the years we have developed a very close and deep friendship and I feel I can talk to her about absolutely anything and any subject. We are friends, still letter-writers, friends on Facebook. She is my retreat and this last year I sorely missed my annual visit….she also lives in a wonderful part of this country.

Also, the last “S” is shopping lists…I always try to write them out but don’t always remember to take them. I make all sorts on the list.

One more “S”….shoe shopping. I hate it….my toes curl at the thought of going into a shoe shop. My toes are actually curling as I type this. I have a big wide size 8 feel and you cannot buy a pretty shoe. It is my worst thing. I used to order my work shoes form the Shoe Tailor.
