Yes, a modern fairy tale. Sometimes a nightmare or so it seems. I enjoyed reading your work. Thanks for the visit to my page. Sara

Just LOVE the last line!!! How long do you give this 'marriage,' Tom? --I give it between 4 - 9 years, depending on several factors. No more than that, but could be less, of course. ~ Gershon

Thanks Gershon, they may surprise us as the royal family seem to be moving away to the old british stiff traditions

Ain't that the truth. Am an Episcopalian and was glad to hear Bishop Curry sermon. Like Patton I even have read his book "Crazy Christians."
