I want to be with you..


















My gentleman told me this morning, ''I haven't seen you much this week, so I am going to cancel my weekly poker tournament and spend time with you.'' I was so thrilled.. It was unexpected and sweet. To this day I am amazed by his consideration and thoughtfulness. Maybe I'll get flowers as well..

Gentleman Please!!!




My gentleman showed his true colours again yesterday . Upon leaving work he saw a car go up on a curb and almost hit a professional man who happen to be black.
( this is relevant)

The man was terrified and yelled at the cab driver. ''Stupid Cabby''.. In a second, the cabby backed his car up , stopped it , got out and began yelling the at the man.

Calling him names I refuse to put on my blog.

My gentleman ran over and stepped in between them pushing each other. ''Gentlemen Please'', he shouted.

The black man began calling the cabby all kinds of Indian sub continent based slurs.

Telling the cabby to get back in his car and continue on his way( he had customer in his car), and the other man ,''its not worth it mate''.

The men stormed off in their respective directions.

Hope they learned something that day...

Oh the kindness

These last few weeks have been true test if my gentleman's stamina. He has endured pain without complaint and escorted me and a friend, all around England/Wales.

In total he drove 1000 miles!! He had injured his foot and it was still throbbing.

He became ill on our journey but quietly carried on. While my friend Heather was here, he insisted on paying. It was a battle of hospitality between the American South and proper English graciousness.

It may have been a tie, until Heather ever so carefully hid ''money'' in an area we would find it!!! Ah, well...

Now I have become con jested, I will carry on just like my gentleman!

Due Dignity

My wonderful gentleman hurt his foot very badly on Friday. It was swollen a bit and hurt him. However, holding to his code of honour, he complained little and simply needed to rest. I was willing to due all if his duties around the house because of his injuries.Once again, his breeding came through and he still disposed of the garbage and chopped the vegetables. Ah, he is the light of my life..

A gentlemans call..

My gentleman handled things again today, this time with my Visa. I left out his passport with all of the other documents I needed.

I was so scared and he called the Visa office today and sorted the whole conundrum out for us. The man at the Visa office said, Request for further documents is common and many, many people leave out one document. I now have a huge weight off my chest.

Now the wait!! The man told us that it will be 12 weeks to 6 months! Oy!

Champion

Congratulations to my gentleman on his rowing victory yesterday.He and a few associates from his firm, competed in a charity mini- decathlon.

The were beaten by 0.05 of second by another underwriters firm,of which most of the team's crew, rowed at Cambridge.

That is very impressive to come in only a fraction of a second behind these world -class professionals.

Also, I am confident that my gentleman handle himself with the dignity that is expected.

However, it was an exceptional victory and I am deeply proud of his sportsmanship and his placement.

What its all about..

In this blog, I will be discussing, analysing and lathering praise on the many gentleman that are left on this planet.

The first one being my husband, he has proven to be a modern gentleman of the most fascinating kind.

I am thrilled beyond words that he is confident and secure enough in his being, to assimilate the 21 century concepts of equal pay,equal rights and still showcase (in a many instances)Victorian era manners.

He is truly a gift ..
