A great aunt and uncle

We became a great aunt and uncle again today, as Nadine and Alex have had a little girl.  We look forward to meeting her in December.

I think back to my young childhood and my uncles and aunts.  I can't even remember the "great" generation, except for my great aunt Hilda whose dressing table I still have.

As Ecclesiastes says:  "A generation is coming and a generation is going."

It has been a lovely lovely Autumn day - amazing light - a great day to first open your eyes in.

Simon and Co dropped in for a cup of tea and a chat on their way back up North - which was a lovely surprise.
