My Mum came home today, after four months away.Not much of a welcome, thick and constant rain and about 17C(62F).
The classic story of- if only you'd have been here yesterday!
We were going to go out to lunch, but her car battery died.. so house bound, I made lentil & bean stew.
She bought me gifts from Papua New Guinea, South Africa, India, Madeira & the U.K!? :)
