A Beautiful Visit From A Special Friend.









Steve from The Wheel of Fortuna from Texas, USA, came round to visit us this afternoon and it was wonderful to see him, really good to get a big hug from him.

He gave me a favourite batik scarf of BobRobert's that was made by his best friend Gina.

I am very touched to have something of BobRobert’s; it smelled wonderful which was how BobRobert smelled.

So I got not only something that was BobRobert’s but had his perfume on it too, that is very special to me.

It was so normal and even ordinary to have Steve come by today, but it was anything but ordinary it was extraordinary and very moving to have the pleasure of Steve's visit.

Steve bought a bottle of prosecco and we ate some freshly baked bread rolls, I ate a French croissant and cheese and some of the two pepper jam and jelly Steve had brought from the USA for us.

We chatted and laughed and listened to music, after 3 hours of pleasant company Steve went back to his hotel to rest.

We had a delightful meal that Richie had prepared earlier, for the first time in ages I sat and ate in the front room which was very good indeed.

A nice way to end a good day, made so much better for seeing Steve, a dream come true.

Will get Richie to pop me back into bed soon as I have been sitting for hours now.

Hope Steve has a pleasant evening in Amsterdam and a pleasant time in Paris tomorrow hope his flight on Saturday goes well and he has a safe landing back home

Bon voyage Steve

What a wonderful afternoon you got to spend with Steve. And you, my dear, look marvelous with your red hair and a touch of makeup. Color suits you. When you go out, hopefully soon, you'll knock 'em dead!
