Screaming in silence, Fast on her feet. Nervously feeling fear on the street
Bros!!!!!!!! My guilty secret Wink

Cat amongst the pigeons.

It may seem to you that I'm acting confused
When you're close to me
If I tend to look dazed I've read it someplace
I've got cause to be
There's a name for it
There's a phrase that fits

Tina Turner, What's love got to do with it

To make you all mine, all mine is my desire
'Cause you contain a quality, you that I admire
You're pretty plain and simple, you rule my world so try to understand
1988

Oh his knees are a getting chilly
But he feels no fear nor pain
Cause he seeks a new tomorrow
Through a golden window pain

Hit in the 80s

@FlouncingBabooshka

Thanks for the support lovely people 😊

It’s not great but it will get sorted. Mostly covered by insurance but it’s the time and upheaval. Can’t really go anywhere else - thought of that at first Flouncer but with DH’s Parkinson’s it’s not easy to move into anything temporary.

I keep missing all your speed posts Flouncer!

Sorry to hear about your troubles @FlouncingBabooshka ❤️

It was a cool and lonely breezy afternoon
(How does it feel when you got no food?)
You could feel it 'cause it was the month of June
(How does it feel when you got no food?)

80s
