I was there as well but missed the photo session!
Dear Sarah,
What a marvellous photo, the name Mary Brooks and Dinah Eastop rings masses of bells but it is a long time since we met so I cant pin a face to them!
I so enjoy all these Posts, many thanks for keeping us on the list!
Happy New Year to you all, DAWN and SIMON
What a shame you missed the photo opportunity, – if I was better with technology I would offer to photoshop you in!
What a joy to see your all on this picture!
