Fathers Day in the Duchy
After Church we came home to some splendid cinnamon buns and coffee accompanied by a beautifully made card and gifts. I was told which one to leave until last. It was heavy and hard and I had no idea what it was. To my delight I encountered a wonderful frost proof ceramic plaque painted,researched and created by my daughters. They had gone onto my blog ,unknown to me, and done some research-

It will be fixed to outside of the the garden room/shed /yurt by Jan & the girls this week.Until them here is a preview of the plaque's position and the delighted owner of it.
