Confidential to my giftee: I think you’re sweet and surprisingly un-cranky considering the amount of sleep you get.

Not that my Mem ever took this advice herself. She’s a pepperpot when it comes to politics.

Tough Break, Charlotte

When Charlotte fractured her leg, she got no sympathy from any of us. If she had BROKEN it, we would have given her lots and lots of pity and attention, but a fracture? That didn’t sound anywhere near as dramatic. It was years before any of us realized that a break and a fracture were the same thing. Sorry, Charlotte. You were right, we were wrong, we are the dirtiest things of all.
