In most of the photos I have of my aunt
she´s unsmiling, composed and elegantly dressed in the height of
30´s fashion. However, just occasionally the façade slips and shows
her to be more than just a perfectly groomed fashion plate.

The first photo is typical of many I
have in which she´s looking her most elegant which is why I chose
that particular one for my present blog header. As you can see from
the second photo, at some time during the 30s she seems to have
become a victim of a truly bizarre fashion and in the third one she´s
lost her cool entirely as she scrambles around the beach on all fours
with my mother and a friend on her back. Good to know that the
family sense of the ridiculous didn´t pass her by. Now you know who
you got it from, Neville.
I created this page from the kit I´m
currently working on. That is when I´m not in my garden waging war
on the snails that infest my veggie patch. I probably cut a
ridiculous figure myself as I scatter crumbled egg shells around while
muttering strange oaths under my breath. Thank goodness there´s
nobody around to take photos of me while I do it!
