Chantal spent the day in Leeds last Thursday, visiting the Hands and having a lovely time with Claire, Bess and Florence, as well as seeing Dave, Si’s Dad, for dinner. I have tried to persuade Chantal that it is time for her to write a post for the blog, but she won’t do as I tell her. No change there then. But she did tell me that they all went to the White Rose Shopping Centre to visit the “Build-a-Bear Factory” so that Bess could create her own unique bear to give to Florence for Christmas, but shhhhh…..don’t tell Florence. It’s a secret. While Bess was undertaking Bear Building, Florence was touring the rest of the shopping centre with Grannie Chas.
Chantal’s favourite moments were apparently spent in the bathroom – enjoying an enthusiastic “High Five”’ with Bess every time she (Bess, not Chantal) successfully did a wee in the toilet!

Technically we live in Oaktree House, but sadly the tree had to go.
We now have a thriving Oakstump at the front of the house.
