I am not quite so grandiose as to imagine she is a regular reader here, more likely her secretary was trawling the web to find poems about rather obscure forms of insects such as lace wing flies and happened on that one.<br /><br />Elisa - thanks, I thought I'd put a link in but I see I hadn't, I shall amend that!<br /><br />Theresa - there's a link to it in the post now, and elisasspot, above, has added another one, sorry, thought I'd done it!Lucyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09764296105901909328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37070024.post-50488292272143911052015-02-09T16:17:35.573+01:002015-02-09T16:17:35.573+01:00May I see the sonnet? ;-)May I see the sonnet? ;-)YourFireAnthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03428838843235292696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37070024.post-337076166488726652015-02-09T16:16:33.272+01:002015-02-09T16:16:33.272+01:00Well done, my dear! ;-)Well done, my dear! ;-)YourFireAnthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03428838843235292696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37070024.post-47563238195527630302015-02-07T20:29:14.999+01:002015-02-07T20:29:14.999+01:00hurray! i know a famous person!

But the pic puzzles me. The ground appears to be covered in snow - is that how you recall it? Alternatively you took the pic from an altitude of 25 miles (during a part of the flight that now escapes me) and what I take to be snow is low cloud. If either (or both) of these suppositions is correct I'll cheerfully withdraw my puzzlement since my memory is very much a sometime thing these days.<br /><br />PS: Since you're so good at knitting how about a laurel wreath?Roderick Robinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16828395545197001637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37070024.post-25421521718674057472015-02-03T16:36:56.061+01:002015-02-03T16:36:56.061+01:00Cheers, Lucy, on your well-deserved recognition!
