I've got a bit of a thing for old books.

Me too. You are not alone.

It seems that's what tempted across the threshold. All three found a little respite from the heat, stopped panting, and went back out to their favourite parking spot for a comfy sit down on damp soil.

Can you believe this: I've awoken to rain falling! After yesterdays silent and oppressive heat, it sounds amazing on the roof!

That is wonderful. Enjoy it!

I've probably got a few more coming up to their century, but nothing from the 1800s like RC.

None! At last she's focussed on preening the new ones into prominence, but they've got a long way to go yet.

Ooooh it's good to sit outside on a slightly damp chair with the hens pottering about. There's a cool breeze on my face!

Special day.

They had quite a few adventures as I recall. It’s probably been around six years since I read it last. There’s stories in there that I’ve never read. I remember my grandparents reading to me from this book.

That's wonderful!

Such a lovely lady.
