What a Generation Gap...


Nearly an entire century separates these two in age. One of them remembers the London Blitz, knows how to drive a double-clutch car, and traveled across the United States in 1938. The other... well, we're not entirely sure just what he remembers.


It was fun listening to all the stories that Minnie told, especially the one in which a 2-year-old Bruno locked her inside the bathroom. (She was eventually able to lean out the window and summon outside help.)

I'd write more but I'm really tired. Someone once gave me advice: use the weekends to catch up on sleep and don't try and go out and about much, at least for the first few months. I'm thinking that sounds pretty good right about now!

Many congrats.
Some great advice there. Be selfish! Look after YOU! Sleep, sleep, sleep whenever you can. You'll be so glad you did.
Much love & best wishes
