Godmother Lucy - reporting for duty


 It’s difficult to live so far from people you love, especially if they’re young folks. I’ve spent the last few days being throughly domestic, with my goddaughter, and her family.


It’s meant going to a school theatre showcase…


…in a wonderful, little theatre…

…that dates from 1913…


…and going out…


…for amazing ice cream…

…conscious all the time that I’m missing so much. Let’s see if I feel the same after the piano recital tonight.
