The title of this blog comes from a Gaelic expression -"putting on the poor mouth"-which means to exaggerate the direness of one's situation in order to gain time or favour from creditors.
Dulcinea has decreed that I shall view these images no more for I seem more entranced by them than I should be. In response I declared, "but my dearest sweet lady, I am merely staring so intently and so long just to discern and quantify with great care just precisely how much more beautiful you are than this pretty but still deficient lass." I am sure Lady Dulcinea's carelessly swinging leg was not meant to hit me where it did, but by unfortunate coincidence it has rendered further offspring from our blessed union impossible. A sad day, though we can still try, I suppose, once the swelling has decreased.
A sneaky peek Shaunso? At what? My swelling? Oh... or at the Bella do you mean? But that may be painful since my swelling... Oh Shaunso, I shall not explain... but a rough squire such as you will understand.
At Bella, not your swelling dear master! I fully understand the wrath of a jealous mistress. I suggest discretion when gazing at la Bruja's beauteous countenance!

Your portraits are really a delight to see.
Why thankyou Susan!
A most appropriate title.
Bella indeed
She is beautiful, a really nice person and a delight to work with

Ah Don QuiScottie your ardour has been well and truly stopped with extreme prejudice.
Tell you what. Take a sneaky peek when Sweet Dulcinea has gone to bed!
