Enjoying a lovely little afternoon break from lesson planning by looking through some old photos. 



Whilst reading a personal account of the lives of my grandparents. 

I bought these books as gifts for them a few years ago. They have finally completed and passed them back to me.  These books are available on Amazon and are a really lovely idea. It gives your loved ones the opportunity to tell you things about them that you could have never imagined. 

One story from my Nanny's book, tells of how as a child she used to sell firewood with her best friend. But she had to keep it a secret from my Great Grandmother, as the friend was of gypsy origin and my Great Grandmother disapproved! 

I think I might get one for everybody!
