Bank Holiday

From Left to right: Matty, Maddy, Martha, Anna, me, Dom, Luke, Kat, Rocco, Lisa, Jowler and Arthur.

A perfect Bank Holiday weekend at Heatherfield.

Momee Mother dearest

Narna Bendy yellow fruit

Maw Why yes, I'd love another slice.

Bubbul Look at those beautiful translucent spheres

Mil I'd certainly like some of that nutritious liquid that
comes from the finest Jersey cows

Uh-oh Oh dear. It would appear I've spilt some of this
morning's white gold.

Ba-Ba You can leave now. I've had quite enough of your
ugly mug.

At least she's got the basics covered.
