Pigs, Parrots and a day out

Just a quickie to describe what we have done today.
We got up late and went out to Chartwell House- the home of Winnie the Pooh Winston Churchill. It was good fun and very interesting. I never know how great a writer/artist he was. He even had time to build his Garden wall.

Here are some of my favourite quotes from Churchill

From now on, ending a sentence with a preposition is something up with which I will not put.

History will be kind to me for I intend to write it.

I like pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals.

Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing ever happened.

Success is the ability to go from one failure to another with no loss of enthusiasm.

There are a terrible lot of lies going around the world, and the worst of it is half of them are true.

When the eagles are silent, the parrots begin to jabber.
