Lucky dip
It's Mum's birthday today and the best present she got was
a photo from her niece Jill (my cousin) of all of us in 1959.
Best thing of all was that we'd never seen this photo
before, not in decades of slideshows and reminiscing.
That's me on the trellis, to the left of Jill, and our matching
families: one mum and two younger brothers each.
