http://magpieandbadger.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, 29 June 2013. Tending the family tree. I wanted to find out more. I also knew very little about my grandparents and no knowledge of any of my family beyond my parents parents.

Sunday, 9 June 2013. Wouldn't it be dreadful to live in a country where they didn't have tea? There is a running joke in my world that whenever someone mentions a place my usual comment is “There’s a really nice tearoom there…”. It’s a joke that contains a grain of truth. I’ve been lots of places (not all, obviously! Oh my goodness, I remember them from my tiny-hood at my mother’s favourite after-shopping lunch place, Kelly’s in Philadelphia. Is this still a big thing? Pat’s King of Steaks. About 10 year...
