Just you keep at it, Carol, it's great. As for the greenery up the trellis, it's roses. just think yourself lucky they weren't out. You should see the washed out picture I have of Grandfather William Stevens(shock horror I have just found it was sometimes spelt Stephens) with his first grand daughter. It's roses all the way. Won't give you that one......yet....

All right, you asked for it, you two. The picture isn't in too bad a condition, but it's pretty brown and foggy. Typical back garden scene, I think that's a tea chest and an old tin tub I can see there. But isn't it sweet, the Grandfather with the little child, tucked between the trellis and the step ladder. It's so homely. I've started it on a new run title Little Nellie and Grandfather William. Over to you.
