#TheManyAndTheFew

I have never heard of the song #TheManyAndTheFew, so have no idea of it‘s context, but those words together in one sentence always brings to my mind Churchill‘s speech honouring the efforts of the RAF Fighter Command during the Battle of Britain.

“Eight candles we'll burn and a Ninth one too
Every New Year that comes and goes
We'll think of the many in the hands of the few
And thank God we are seeds of the Jews” 🎶

#DecemberSong Day 26: #TheManyAndTheFew is somewhat of a stretch here - with many nuts and few drinks hehehehe- plus Strunk and White have always advocated for parsimony of language: less is more. 💕 - posting a day early to give myself a bit of a break tomorrow, especially as we head out into the city (Abu Dhabi). 📚❄️🏔🐫
