Strolling Just Strolling

Do you remember the tune 
Strolling just strolling,  
In the cool of the evening air, 
I don't envy the rich in their automobiles, 
 For a motor car is phoney.
I'd rather have Shanks's pony, 
When I'm strolling, just strolling, 
With the light of the moon above, 
Every night I go out strolling,  
And I know my luck is rolling, 
When I'm strolling with the one I love. 
Flanagan and Allen sang it, then me as I strolled through
 Healey Dell with Mr Dapper Chap after having a late lunch in the tea rooms.
Back home just before it got to dark to see our hands in front of our faces.
 Hmm, must be a song in there somewhere.

 Here's a two for one outfit I put together, sticking with the 
autumn/halloween colours. 
It's my Seaforth vintage blouse and  St. Michaels polyester frock

    2. No we didn't go there Lynn. He's out, so your secret is safe with me, lol.
      I envy you your gingerbread latte! I've only found it in Inverness M&S cafe, so it's not a frequent treat regrettably. Have plans to go next Saturday tho' ;)
      Enjoy your Sunday xxx
