I would love Janet's 'Tuscan View' at the end of our great room.
I did find a stream, amidst greenery, and David pasted it up, a good ten years ago.
Now, nothing like that can be found anywhere, and ours is beginning to come away from the wall in bits!
It would be nice for everyone to have something like this in their living rooms more…
Reminds me of Peter Pan too.
This painting is adorable.
Just the thing for a child's room.
I love the peaceful green colours.
Very soothing. Thank you, Colin. more…

We are the ones to start tightening our belts and cut-back on reproducing.
We spay our animals. More of us should do the same to ourselves.
I still think it would still take a good 200 years to get everything back in balance again, on this over-populated and polluted planet. more…

I am not sure about that.
It seems that although the Mayan calendar is often said to end at that date, it will not necessarily mean The End of the World.
