I'm just now reading 'Salt in my porridge' by Angus MacVicar - lovely bed-time reading and embodies the spirit you speak of. I always think my generation try to emulate my mother's. Now they rally were the business.xoxoxPathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01529798893653033970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20735769.post-39148639744168363452007-07-05T01:04:00.000+01:002007-07-05T01:04:00.000+01:00Makes you proud to be British.

It's an admirable trait. <BR/><BR/>Although it's a horrible way to come by it, I think British hardiness might be on the up and up again after the recent attacks in London and Glasgow. As far as I can tell, people have been coping very philosophically with all the disruption and uncertainty.<BR/> <BR/>What a lovely little old lady!

It makes you hope that some millionaire with a few thousand quid to spare might have been watching as well and sent a donation - but all the same that lady had something money could never buy, her wonderful outlook on life.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
