A Very Special August

Hello and welcome back to 'Our small corner'.


Thank you for all your lovely messages while we were away. We enjoyed reading all of them. 


Now we are back after a very whirlwind month of events during August—back to reality with many happy memories of weddings, birthdays, and holidays in the sun to share with you. 


This last week, the washing machine has been working nonstop to sort out all the returning washing. Fortunately, it has been beautifully dry weather, and the washing lines have been full.


We are still sorting out photos of the wedding and eagerly awaiting the newlyweds' return from their Honeymoon in Borneo, Bali, and Singapore. What adventures will they have to tell us?


While they were away on a very exotic trip, we enjoyed cruising around parts of the Greek and Turkish coastlines and islands—there was plenty of sun, sea, and sites for us to see.


There will be lots of photos over the next few weeks.


August is always a busy month here, with three close family members celebrating their special day. This year, Hubby turned 65, and D had her birthday during the cruise. Our son was also celebrating his birthday while on Honeymoon. From next year, we will be adding an anniversary to the August celebrations!


We hope you have all had a good month while we have been away. We are looking forward to catching up on all your news. 


Have a lovely week, everyone.


Beverley and D.
