Madeline

It is Sunday and I am feeling sad. It is just a year ago that I started my blog with the story of cousin Madeline and the bee. Now I am sorry to say she has died. Since we both were widowed she had often phoned me on a Sunday afternoon to laugh about the silly things one does in old age, to deplore the way things have changed since we were young and generally put the world to rights. I shall miss her.
