Warts and All

St Francis Bay

Holiday Destination / Resort

Paradise astride the Indian Ocean

Eastern Cape 

South Africa

But out of Season

A proverbial virtual Ghost Town

1 out of 10 Homes have there curtains drawn 

Shut up until next season 

Which begs the Question ??

Why if you owned 1 of these Places ?

Why would you ever choose to leave here ?

If you could afford to buy here in the 1st Place ?

Its the kind of place dreams are made of ?

Makes me wonder how great your life must be ?

If this is merely your Parking Space for Summer 

This is merely my admission confession of Jealousy 

I wonder if they know just how lucky they are ?

I wonder if so 2 

My dream time rolling in the money will come true ? 


Dreaming is Ok 


But I would be lying if I did not admit

Id much rather prefer the real deal 

Warts and All

Id rather be Rich than Poor

Good Looking over Funny

Clever than Thick

Tall rather than Short

Six Pack over Layers of Fat & Double Chin

And Oh Yes

To top off my wish list

A Massive

10 Inch Dicktionary 

To Gloat About
