Happy New Year Deb. Thanks for all your support and friendship in 2013.
2014 is going to a fantastic year isn’t it????
Even David Cameron is saying that we are out of recession and on the way to prosperity. He would say that with an election looming!!
But anyway.. Love to you and the family. Tony and Marilyn.

Same to you Tony! – and I never mind your comments, even if they do periodically get a tad snarky – “For what do we live, but to make sport for our neighbours, and laugh at them in our turn?” is all too true!
And I have no idea who you are referring to as resembling the Lady in the New Year postcard?? – do tell!
