Well, they went out early and came back late but had such an amazing day.. I'm not going to tell you about it because he, Bruce, has told mama he'll write a post for my blog tonight and we'll have it to put onto my blog tomorrow morning.
They had an extraordinary time, that much I can tell you, and after having travelled for about half an hour from central London, they stood in the place that their great grandparents stood, over a hundred years ago and that doing so, it had made Constance and Ambrose seem more 'real'.. of course, they knew them to be real, otherwise neither of them would be who they are but their family's past doesn't seem so distant any longer.
But it's late and we're in bed. They stopped off on the way home to buy YumYum at the wonderful food hall in Selfridges, smoked trout, oooh, a favourite of mine, and other delicious things. Their pudding was a Pocket Coffee, a box of which was one of the goodies he brought us, it is fresh from Piedmont, near Alba, near to where Bruce was staying with Steve, his brother, and Francesca, Steve's wife, which is where Ferrara Rocher make their chocolate delights, which ARE, veryvery, delightful!
So it's "goodnight" from us all, Bruce, mama and me until tomorrow. I do hope that he doesn't spend too long reading Private Eye magazine and that he writes the post for us tonight, so she'll be able to put it on my blog tomorrow morning?
We can only hope and wish, can't we?
