What An Excuse

Oh, you charming, New Year,

What a great excuse you are


For


All my Ill-fated efforts of the

Year just past, to forget!

No-one has, dear Eve, but we should give ourselves a second and third and...chance! Thank you!

Very clever, Demi! Wiping the slate clean is always the easy way out! We still have to be careful, though, for some things will still dog our steps. All the best, my friend. // paul
