Then There Were Two!

Our surprise visitors have now returned to north London leaving Lady M and myself by ourselves once again. Everything is eerily quiet, but they'll be back in August. We don't have long to wait!

Above, is my grandson Ollie (with our house bear Monty), who, along with his brother Harvey J, is one of the nicest children in the entire world (well, I would say that, wouldn't I).


And here's Harvey J himself, bringing home the first crop of courgettes from Haddock's. They've had plenty of adventures, made friends with some local girlies, and met the other Monty (our new dog) for the first time. A week filled with sunshine frolics and fun.

Hurry back boys. Grumpy misses you already (and their parents, of course)!

  4. It's so nice being a grandfather - I wonder how everyone's grandchildren can be simultaneously the best in the world? A mysterious paradox - because I know it's true.

  6. Lovely looking boys. Hope you are appreciating this rain I've created specially for you Cro. (I've been running around all night with buckets under a half-tiled roof)

  7. For my hubby, being both retired and a grandfather means he has the luxury of being able to spend leisurely time with the grandchildren. Because of the demands and stress of careers, few men get to enjoy that same luxury with their own children. So while I'd have to say MY grands are the "best", I must concede that being a grandfather may even be more sweet than being a grandmother, at least for those of us who were fortunate enough to be stay-at-home moms.

  8. Sue. You were right; perfect weather for having your roof fixed. Still, it'll get the mushrooms growing; you'll be compensated!!
