You have such a lovely way of expressing yourself Jessie- theres always genuine warmth in your emails and its a pleasure to hear from you again. Thank you once again for your comments.
Ive passed on your "Hello" to Mary E (Mrs ideasguy)
I'm impressed you remember our email correspondence many months ago when Mary E was recovering from surgery.
One could never guess she had two hip replacement ops last year. She is walking great now, with no pain, and as you can see, she really enjoyed the occasion (as we all did of course!).
Perhaps it was the Ginseng tea?

) Left to Right is my sister Marjorie, my sister-in-law Sylvia, my sister Vera and Mary E.
Congratulations to Lynn, Jessie. I'm sure you were a very proud Mum at that ceremony. Any photos? It would be lovely to see them.
Is Lynn staying on in Manchester? My daughter lives and works there now, as she finishes her Masters degree at Uni.
Ive promised myself a visit to Kew as well, Jessie. It must have been hard to drag yourself away from those gates
Perhaps next year? From what I hear,a keen gardener could spend an entire vacation at Kew - its incredible!
We have a family friend who visits Kew regularly, and Ive heard enough to decide that I must visit that heaven on earth place soon.
