Memories by Sue Way

The other day, while looking for a picture on my other hard drive, I came across a lovely photo that one of my cousins sent me a few years ago. It was taken at my aunts wedding in 1957. The photo features my aunt, with her mom and dad (my nan and grandad) on either side of her, along with all her brothers and sisters, including our dad, who is in the top left corner of the picture. I decided to share it on Facebook and tagged some of my family members. It was heart-warming to see my cousins start posting their memories of that day. Although I wasnt born yet and never met my grandad, it was wonderful to read their stories. Some of them had been bridesmaids. My aunt made her wedding dress, as well as all the bridesmaid dresses—four in peach and four in green.

Roman Around by Janice McFarlane

Last week my youngest grandson Harry went on his first residential away with his primary school. It was only for one night, and only an hour away from where he lived. There was a specific theme for this time away which was studying the life of Romans which is the topic they are currently embarking on this term at school. They learned about life as Roman Soldiers and battle strategies. The children dressed up and were given shields and swords. The learned how to use their shields to form a tortoise shell in a group as well as having a bit of target practice. Harry thoroughly enjoyed it and would happily talk about it non stop.
