Gunslingers

My son has moved into the back room. It's a joy to have him.

He has a replica Colt 45 on his wall and I've just been showing him how Wild Bill Hickock wore his guns- poked into a sash high up under the rib-cage- and how he drew them with a flowing motion, arms crossed- the right hand going for the left hand gun and vice versa. 

And then I got the camera out.

Hmmm, a man and a weapon, be still my heart! Your son is serious babe material and I'm a dirty old lady.

I'm afraid he's already taken......:)

But you've given me an excuse to post this rather gorgeous picture of him and Sarah....

Well, I'm just smiling...

And I'm happy he's with you for awhile.

I love this picture.

Awwww. He looks like a seriously annoyed referee in that striped shirt. Take that, you reprobate wide-receiver!

And I'll tell you what- he does the washing up without being asked! How's that for a 23 year old male?

It's a Juventus strip.

I'm not sure he's a serious supporter- I've never known him actually sit down and watch football- but it's a pretty cool looking shirt.

And they're on the phone to one another constantly.

It does my heart good.....

He doesn't need any prompting when it comes to striking a pose. He's a natural.

It's the Coakley nose, I think.....

Wild pink hair- yeah. Ailz has asked her if she'll colour hers!
