I'm just an old fashioned girl with an old fashioned mind
Not sophisticated, I'm the sweet and simple kind
I want an old fashioned house, with an old fashioned fence

Thanks for letting me know, John! Hope you enjoy it!
Just the thing for a wet Friday afternoon!

Not wet here ---- yet! Have to do my weekly shopping this afternoon so hope it keeps off until that's done. It's still sunny here - just!

"It's the ash! It's falling!" yelled Julian, almost startling Dick out of his wits...
"Listen to its terrible groans and creaks!" yelled Julian, almost beside himself with impatience.

Journal 36 Summer 2008 just landed on my door mat.
I would like to say a very big thank you to Rob for so kindly sending it to me free of charge.
I'm going into the garden under a large rain umbrella to read it right away!
Many thanks indeed Rob.
Best Wishes
Pete

Thanks Pete!
I'm quite excited that you'll be able to read my infamous article about 'The Hidey Hole'
I wasn't very kind to it as I recall!

What, a top notch story like that - shame on you!
I will take
The Hidey-Hole with me out into the garden now with my banana and milk and brace myself for your Brian Sewell like critique!!
