Excellent – one up for the vegetarians! Nice one Beth. It seems as though bad reportage has always been with us. :)
Thanks, Kelly! I had fun “perhapsing” – and kids will always be kids even dressed in loincloth… Appreciate your comment – Beth
Love it.
Kate! Thanks for reading. Glad you liked it.
Clever as always Beth! Congratulations!
Thanks for checking it out, Dan! Hope your holiday was good.
Lovely little piece! And who knows, quite likely too! :D
Hi, AJ! Are you the AJ of Biding Time? I loved that one. Thanks for the compliment – and yes, it does seem possible – but as you say – who knows? – and we never can for certain.
Hello Beth! Yes, I’m the same AJ of Biding Time :) Glad you enjoyed my little piece! :D
