Our eldest daughter left after dinner last night and second daughter and family, including our lovely Guest Blogger, left after breakfast . Our son is still here and his twin sister and her daughter arrive tomorrow. It’s all go!
D is here to collect all his drums and other musical instruments including a Kora that he made himself and to take them all back to Barcelona. The bag for the Kora had a broken zip so off we went to the wonderful Make A Mends shop in town to get it fixed. It was done in moments!

S at the shop had recently made a beautiful pair of trousers out of old curtains and these were being bought by a young lady who will wear them at a wedding soon.

Gorgeous, aren’t they? And just made from old curtains, both inside and out. 🙂

Make A Mends sounds like a great shop to have when a mend is needed!
So glad you’ve had a chance to see the whole gang! Or almost.

It has been special. With them all being so scattered, we don’t often get then all together. 🙂

It is, it’s brilliant, such an asset for our little town.
Yes, we have seen all four of ours and some LiveWires but no partners and not all LiveWires this time, sadly. Maybe next time…. We can live in hope. 🙂
