That must be the lady who was sitting with Pippa-Stef and Shadow, in the Spade Oak when we had the gathering for Old Thatch Day on June 18th.
She must have thought it was an Enid Blyton Day.

Yep! That was her!
I think the quote was from Shadow. Though, apologies to Faraway_tree if it was her. It was interesting little chat for sure. I'm sure I ended up babbling away like one of Enid's brookes!

"You're so sharp you'll cut yourself one day!" Hunchy said going to the door
"So my Mother told me that when I was two years old!" said Julian and the others giggled.

I remember her well. I think the term 'jolly' shows that it was our Bourne End soiree, and not a 'proper' Day - which of course, we didn't have this year.
