Laura & CTB Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 when she tasted the gentian violet!!! Hi all - been away for a while as I took some time off work, nice and relaxing time and some great weather for a change. Spent a couple of days in Brugge and made the mistake of going to the diamond museum - they have a one carat diamond cut perfectly into the shape of a chicken and I fell in love with it. Then the curator told me it was actually for sale - a mere 13,000 euros. CTB did offer to sell his motorbike so I could buy it - hmmmm let me think on it a while Anyway - off to catch up on all those arrows, nice to be back.
