Dear All
Tonight I have posted our Christmas greetings for this year.
A dose of seasonal 'fluey cold' has meant that we are rather last minute
with all preparations and no doubt there are many 'tweaks' which could have
been made.
but never the less we do hope you enjoy the page.
Dear All

Jeri's contribution reminded me in a timely fashion of how my own Mother and
her generation of lace makers in the 40s 50s 60s of the 20th Century in
