I see in the paper that Meghan is being criticised for wearing jeans when she went to watch Serena Williams playing tennis on Centre Court. Apparently such daring is a definite no-no.

I wonder if anyone told her beforehand.

In the photograph I saw I think she looks smarter than the people sitting beside her.

Is there an American rose ?

There certainly is anniebach, although it was bred in France and exported to the US where it became very popular.

here's Frank Sinatra singing about it

The film American Beauty was released in 1999.

janeainsworth, how did you do that?! What superb technical skills and how fabulous to have Sinatra singing to us. My Uncle used to "do" Sinatra, late at night when he'd had possibly a glass or two too many. My dad would play 'the drums' on the door, mum and her sister would swoon and be the background music/dancers. That generation born in the 1920's knew how to have a good time.

A beautiful rose, thank you ‘janeainsworth’, I thought I had bought every Sinatra record and CD, never heard that

I’d never heard that one either annie

Iam if you like Sinatra, you’d probably like Rod Stewart’s Great American Songbook
