Midsummer
Another lovely, sunny, still day in Barnham. No photos of the happy hens or the abundant roses or the Philadelphia blossom as my camera is bust; so here’s one of a Paratha, such as we ate at the Monsoon Restaurant in Billlngshurst, as guests of the new residents of that town.

hmmm… tasty
had a delightlful meal last night of bread, french cheese and sosi… saucisson! absolutely scrumptious. Mayumi is still in desbelief that it tastes so good in comparison to the bilge cheese we get here. she says thank you all so much for the nice gifts!

Presumably they taste all the better for being rare commodities? I remember Mamie snaffling a small Brie triangle we had saved from the plane and using slivers of it to ‘arrange’ her mouth on several successive evenings.
The colour of cowardice?
Err… Could they have picked a more hideous design for an away strip?

It’s a joke surely? Maybe someone got confused between ‘Northern Rock’ and ‘Stick of Rock’.
wow – pretty impressive mama. good idea.

Leaf card
Mama made this card for Liv and Hannah’s new house out of a large leaf that had been used to wrap the rectangle of bean paste given her by Jul.
It was an amazingly neat package, daintily tied with ribbon; and I think the leaf deserves its third incarnation.
I second that.
Me, too.
the lack of access to the internets at our new place is a bit disconcerting. a belated many happy returns from me. Hope the parcel arrives ok. (despite it being entirely in Han’s handwriting, i played a full and active part;-) – it’s just that her writing is better than mine…)
