So friends a new year begins, and a new decade for that matter. We're entering 2011 with our artistandtartist glass half full as is our wont and would like to take this opportunity to wish you all a very happy and peaceful new year. What has 2011 in store I wonder, adventure? intrigue? excitement? in order to find out I thought I'd consult that tried and tested oracle into events yet to come, from the mystical far east via my Christmas cracker, the 'Fortune Teller' ~ Miracle fish.
So I placed the little red cellophane visionary upon my open palm and would you believe its head and tail began to move.
These particular movements according to the guide on the reverse side of its packet indicate 'In Love'. What a result! I hope you will all be entering 2011 with hearts that are full.
My mum threw a fish at my dad to get his attention apparently. 40 years later they are still married! Not sure if that was a fortune telling fish, but its a funny story. Good to link in with Mersea people even though we're in Devon now! Come over to my blog and join me!
Hello Joe, nice to hear from you and I hope you're enjoying life in Devon! I reckon we ought to bring back chucking a fish at someone you fancy here on the island... it obviously worked for your mum & dad. I'm off to check out your blog right now. James
