1. "There's a fire going in the sitting room," says my father. And there is -- warm red light is glowing through the woodburner glass.
2. A deep red pot of my mother's lamb provencal, sour sweet and very savoury. Alec has it blended smooth and does good work with his spoon.
3. The kindness of gamers -- and their wives. We are playing in the dining room, and I can hear Alec chatting to Audrey who is looking after him so Nick and I can both join in. We haven't been to Tim's table since before Alec was born.
Thank you, it was great to have you two back. You're always welcome to sling dice with us any time :D
