Day 320
Prompt 320
"For Your Eyes Only"
-Roger Moore 1981

Well I had just the photo for this prompt today!!

During half term we went out with the DGC. DGD Amie must have used my camera because when I downloaded the photos this was on my camera, a SP of her eyes. She loves plastering her face with makeup especially her eyes! She wears this amount of make up along with hair embellies, nail polish and jewellery to school which I don't agree with as she is only 12 yrs old.

Am I old fashioned? Yes I guess I am, a good job she doesn't live with Nana!!

Grandad told her he would be able to 'see' her in the dark!!

Yes I do wear makeup but only mascara, blusher and lipstick. This kind of makeup is definetely NOT for my eyes but for Amie's eyes ONLY!!

Day 319
Prompt 319
"Tomorrow Never Dies"
- Pierce Brosman 1997

and neither does DUST or IRONING!!

[Sorry ladies but couldn't resist this!!]

I am doing the dreaded H****W*** today and as soon as I do it it it is lovely then....it seems as dusty and messy again. It was better when I was at work, I was never home long enough to see it AND I had a cleaning lady twice a week to do the cleaning and ironing, then I had a retired DH who helped, now it is just ME!

Day 318
Prompt 318
"Never Say Never Again"
Sean Connery - 1983

At the moment I am following Slimming World way of eating, which does allow us to eat chocolate as a syn, but I couldn't stop at eating just 1 piece, so at the moment I say NEVER.

Hopefully one day I won't have to say "never" again but if I do start to put on weight then I will be saying NEVER again!!

Day 317
Prompt 317
"Goldfinger"
Sean Connery - 1964

[Thanks Barbara for the loan of your finger LOL altered to give it the golden glow!]

Never having been a lover of James Bond films, I have never seen one EVER - not even on TV!!

I would now say having met my fellow 365ers that they are DIAMONDS here is a photo of them

Day 316
This week, (thanks to a fellow 365er, Sarah,) we are going to be inspired by James Bond Films!

Prompt 316
"Diamonds are Forever"
Sean Connery - 1971

I prefer diamonds to any other stones. Here are my ring diamonds all bought by my lovely DH. I believe in "Diamonds are for ever" but...........I did have another diamond engagement ring from my 1st marriage which got stolen in a burglary. It wasn't meant for me to have it for ever

I also use the modern term " you are a diamond" meaning you are great, a star, a 'brick' which I guess means wonderful, reliable, helpful, supportive - a true friend.

Day 315
Prompt 315
"How beautiful it is to do nothing, and then to rest afterward."
-Spanish proverb

Here I am with a beautiful lady doing nothing but enjoying myself . It was truly 'beautiful' and now I am home resting!

Day 314
Prompt 314
Today is Remembrance Sunday here in the UK. A time to remember all those lost in wars over theyears. We show our respect by wearing a red poppy, and 2 minutes silence at 11am.
Take time today to remember someone, something important.

I have uploaded some photos of our moving visit to Albert, France to the Somme trench museum this summer.

I think it is importanat to have this special Sunday every year, not only to remember the brave men and women who lost their lives for our freedom but also an opportunity to remember loved ones that we have lost too.

Day 313
Prompt 313
As man draws nearer to the stars, why should he not also draw nearer to his neighbour?”
- Lyndon B. Johnson (1908-1973), 36th U.S. president

Well my neighbour for the past 2 nights in my bedroom has been my friend from 365 Shirley. She let me have the double bed whilst she had the single bed, THANKS SHIRLxx

We couldn't miss the photo opportunity to have our photo taken having fun in Kay and Sal's bedroom today before we went out to eat and party!!

Day 312
Prompt 312
"A girl should be two things: classy and fabulous."
- Coco Chanel

Well I am definitely not fabulous!!

Classy maybe but I prefer to say that I try to be smart!

I am certainly trying to look nice for this weekend, hair just done and all packed and trying on my new purchase, a fur gilet [a bit too small] but hopefully will be OK in a couple of months! :)

Day 311
Prompt 311
Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it.

Day 310
Prompt 310
"No shade, no shine, no butterflies, no bees,No fruits, no flowers, no leaves, no birds - November!"-Thomas Hood
but full of colour! I love autumn. Show me autumn in your life today

Well I cheated to day and used a 25th Oct photo!

Autumn is a time of the year I hate!

The dark grey days, the mists, the colder weather and the rain.

No wonder my lovely DS1 struggles with these months with his Bilpolar disorder. I am very worried about him at the moment as he struggles once again with his depression after a few 'high' months, a very debilitating illness for some.

Day 309
Prompt 309
"Happiness is the best facelift." -
Diana Krall, quoting Joni Mitchell

Well I am happier now than I was in January, I can certainly see the difference in my face in photos these days.

I am also brave enough to show all my faults to the world, I hate smiling for photos at times because of my crooked teeth and the gaps which seem to show where I have lost teeth - in fact I made this photo into a B&W photo because of them.
