Moral opposition to second homes (Rousse)

Broad bean babies transform into aconites (Rousse)
My cousin EV asked if we could look after her newborn baby. I was very nervous about accepting the invitation, especially since the baby was only the size of a broad bean. It was obvious that this would be a … Continue reading
An audience with the Queen at Buckingham Palace (Rousse)

Second cousins and a suspect chicken (Rousse)
When I arrived at T and S’s house, LO’N and CT were already there. L looked fabulous even though she had only just given birth to baby S. When I asked how she knew CT they both laughed. Surely I … Continue reading

New wheels for TPR (Rousse)
We arrived very early at the show and TPR was quick enough to put his name into the competition for a BMW. Sadly he was unsuccessful – but he did win second prize: a brand new 1.6 litre Astra GTE.

Changes in the marine environment to suit a red-haired mermaid (Rousse)
