You can never have enough...

[Lilith7]

Old letters & diaries are a great source of social history, & often very enjoyable reading. A friend & I years ago well before computers & FB, used to write to each other fairly frequently, & I recently found some of hers which she'd given me to look after while she was travelling. Sent them back to her; she'd forgotten about them & on reading some, said she was a very different person all those years ago. And I suppose we all are, really.

Have done more weeding & digging plus dropped off a pair of boots to be stretched - very annoying that sizes have been changed. I take a 7 & find that sometimes a 37 fits well, other times a 38 is needed. I bought two pair size 37 years ago but as they only had one colour in stock, they posted the other pair & they've always been slightly too tight despite being the same size as the other pair, which fit very well so I hope the stretching is successful. I have some spray shoe stretcher but it only last a short while.

Eldest grandson was in such a hurry, he was born here, rather than them being able to get to hospital - AND on his cousin's second birthday! Not sure she's ever forgiven him, either. DIL has very fast labours, lucky thing.
