Our youngest granddaughter, Angel has been staying with us this week. Her mum dropped her off last Thursday and came up yesterday to take her back, (mum stepping off the train and into her sick bed was a slight low point), but apart from that we have had a smashing time with our little house guest. Angel is five going on fifteen, and is usually to be found hanging on the coat tails and every word of her older sisters, but this week she has been free to regale her grandma and grandpa with her vast array of knowledge about all manner of things. One important thing to mention is that she has been a VERY good little girl... going to bed straight away as soon as she was told, being on her best behaviour at meal times and only asking THREE times for one of grandmas' special throat sweets(!) She has also had lots of fun with Gracie, despite the fact that she is just a little bit nervous of her. She doesn't quite understand that Gracie only wants to play when she jumps up and tries to lick her! By the end of the week however she had pretty much got the hang of forcefully commanding..." Gracie, NO!" at two minute intervals as a way of keeping control. Thanks for visiting us Angel. Come back again soon.

She came, she saw, she conquered us

That photo is a spectacular composition and wants to be a painting. I may paint it myself.
