STRANGER ON THE BUS..

SHE was on the small bus going to the garden yesterday, minding HER own business and playing Wordmole on the mobile, when a charming voice said "What are those tiny plants you have in your basket?".. they were the Rainbow Chard seedlings.. and SHE looked up and saw a very nice looking woman sitting next to HER.

They started to chat, SHE told the woman what they were and where SHE was going and suddenly a look of intense looking came onto the strangers' face and she said "a garden, you have a garden?".

And SHE knew that, whoever this woman was, she was deeply in need of being amongst trees and plants, to sit and smell fresh air, to look at growing things and to talk to someone.

So SHE said "yes, indeed I do have a garden with flowers and fruit trees and vegetables, would you like to come and see it? You could sit whilst I plant these babies and then I could make us some fresh coffee".. 

And that is how SHE met Anna..

WE don't know much about her.. but times have 
not gone very 'happily' for her, is OUR guess. WE are going to have her to lunch in the garden, when SHE has made the new table and WE will invite a couple of other nice women to come as well.

Loneliness is a dreadful thing.. especially when YOU have a family but to whom YOU are not connected, SHE knows this, sadly, first hand.

That is why WE are a team of two.. HER and ME, that's OUR team..

Supper is a'cookin and I know what it is.. WE will be back later on about today. Slurp slurp slurp into the tumtum..

GeeGee Parrot.
