..............and bring gifts they did...the best gift was themselves but they brought gifts for everyone.......
This book is displayed in my kitchen on an easel opened to the current month.......
An assortment of shells and rocks from the beach near Marion and John's home......
In Welsh, this is 'thank you'....if I remember correctly......
Double decker bus socks and plaid hankerchief for Edward, necklace, maps, prints, Ladies of Letters Log On cassettes, beautiful small dish and knife........
The gorgeous cloth with exquisite lace edging, beautiful suitcase- box with flowers, a silver thistle -stag pin with amethyst, a gold crown picture frame......and oh yes, Belgium chocolate....
Country Living magazine (British), newspaper, informative travel brochures, blue and white shore bird Great Britain book of stately homes, cathedrals, puts, walks, etc...
A picturesque blue and white plate, a white cup-saucer-pitcher, a box of Betty tea, an Alan Titchmarsh autobiography......
The bottom water color painting is of Bird Rock near Marion and John's home.....it is the picture onMarion's header.....I think of them as I pass the painting when entering and departing our family room......
I was curious about 'Christmas Pudding' so Marion kindly brought us one...........
A very special gift was contained in this black velvet pouch......
An indenture from the 17oo's to property in Yorkshire....do you think this would still be in effect? Hopefully, later I can show it opened up and the scalloped edges and why it was cut in that particular fashion.........needless to say, Edward was very excited over this gift.....
Bless Prince Harry's heart.......
Marion had asked if there was anything in particular that I would like to have from Wales......I asked if a six pence might be available.....even before I opened the petite shell purse I was pleased........
To my surprise, she had included several old English coins....wishes do come true........so DIOLCH Marion and John.......
