Dear Readers,

It’s been an exciting month for me so far with the birth of a new granddaughter. I am beyond thrilled, as being a grandmother is so rewarding and enjoyable.

I am about to start book number 97- the countdown to 100 is on!

This is our last month of summer and already I can see the leaves on the deciduous trees in my garden beginning to take on a rusty tinge. I try not to think of all those leaves falling down that need to be raked up! I just enjoy the colour while it lasts.

Best wishes,

Melanie Milburne xx
