My Penpal

My delightful penpal of almost a decade and the first time we met at Montacute House on 31st August. My boys kept saying all week how much they liked her and how much fun she was and what a great personality she has. I have to say, I heartily agree!

A fabulous capture and what a great occasion! I used to have a pen pal when I was a teen, but that did not last very long. How lucky to have such a wonderful pen pal.

[Suzanne]

What a great meet up. Like Diana, I used to have a penpal but we lost contact. In this day of emals and SMSs, what a great thing to have sustained.

[Hazel]

A fabulous, happy shot!

[Kathy A]

This warms my heart, so special. What's hubby looking at?

Lovely portrait capture of them three. And Oh, how big your son has grown, I remember him from your pictures of just a few years ago as a little boy.

Nice to see that "mystery" (LOL) penpal and to hear that all three of you enjoyed meeting her very much! Great photo of the boys and her, but where are you? Was there no one to take a photo of you with her? :-(

[Pat Knowles]

The first time you met too I think I read! Is she a 365 friend? You all look very happy & it’s so good to out a prioress face & character to a name. It must have been quite a day.

Fabulous

@bjywamer I have photos of all four of us but this one is my favourite as it is so good of the three of them.

[Casablanca]

@happypat No, met her via Facebook! Yes, first ever fave to face meeting. Never even spoke on the phone. We are old fashioned weekly letter writers. She is a gem. Love her!

[Casablanca]

@fishers He is famous for his amusing t shirts!

[Casablanca]

@kjarn We can’t remember but think it may have been a frieze over the far hall door!
