Description

This book has been collated over a period of twenty years. Its content has sayings and prose which can be witty and wise, hence the title Wit and Wisdom. I was first called a lady when I was thirteen by my middle-aged Greek mythology teacher, Mr O'Connell, who had on odd occasions his trouser flies down - a source of great amusement to an all-girls grammar school! I was secondly treated like a lady and placed on a pedestal by my first husband, whom I shall never forget. Thirdly I was called a lady by Dave and nicknamed Captain Mannering by a close friend at a friend's house whilst debating politics. Fourthly, I used to ride a beautiful white horse called Lady with my children Victoria and Luke. Fifthly, Walter, my second husband, more often than not treats me like a lady, although he seldom says he loves me, but they say actions speak louder than words! My favourite colour is red! Hence the title was stamped, "Lady In Red, Wit And Wisdom".
