I loved your letter today. Last night my grand daughter took our old teddies off the dressing table and said I know these are as old as grandpa I will cuddle them gentle. This made me smile and then I started to wonder where was my memory of where I use to keep our teddies before we had our current dressing table. I could not find that memory. So when I read your letter it resonated with me

Much love, enjoy Clare

It's disconcerting when they've vanished altogether, but you know they must have existed. Clare was lovely.

I love your letters Tracy, always a thrill when they pop up in my inbox. This one, with all its richness, particularly. Oh and they leave the lights on in the stables to either get the mares cycling earlier so they can breed, or if they are show horses to keep their coats short and shiny as horses get their glossy summer coats depending on the length of daylight…the random facts you pick up along the way hey. Thanks for your letter,

It brightened my inbox this morning. MM

Thank you, lovely Maggie, your comment brightened my inbox back. I did think to myself I should email you to ask about the horses, because you would know for sure!
