The Dr;inker Breaking ground for a new garden brings you back Like the time in the early years of World War II when you had to have a bottled Coke made with rationed sugar Not able to meet the Coca-Cola truck at our store you made a deal with Mr Cohen trading rare fresh veggies for sodas of equal value It's good that the Rationing Board never heard of such chicanery F William Broome 2009 ��

all us women have our "mother's ruin", William... that little bit of somethin to get us through the day... perhaps it all starts with pregnancy, who knows, these cravings - or even with what occurs pre-pregnancy!! :)) Gotta luv a woman who knows what she wants... I'm told they are a rare thing by the men who know us! Yep, your "nostalgia" writes certainly strike a chord... Kate xx

Sir Bill, you know that old saying "What happens at Mr. Cohen's store, stays at Mr. Cohen's store." Nice write.

Cheers,
Dan
