Children & grandchildren chez nous

It’s wonderful having Alfie & Betty here to stay (Nadine & Philippe too) and it looks like Simon will be able to drive over without the family quarantining on their return, now that our fabulous government has seen sense.

Meanwhile Betty is loving a bit of quality-time with Tata Cynthia pulling faces…

…and posing like fashion models!

Not exactly posing but Betty has obviously enjoyed her drink at the Starfish. The milk moustache is good evidence.

Look at Sacha’s order for the bar. For those not in the know: grenadine (a pomegranate-flavoured cordial), ACE juice (so called as it is full of vitamins A, C & E), panach(é) (shandy), 2 gin agrumes (gin & citric fruit), 2 pinte (self-explanatory) and did you get the last one? Iced tea. I think he got the job!

Alfie letting his locks down, not far from our house…

…and coming home rather wet and bedraggled with tontons Philippe & Matt after walking Tikka in the forest.

Betty returning from a cycling adventure with Maman Nadine & Mamie Martine

Sacha joins Alfie & Betty in the pool…

…and on the sofa, obviously engrossed in the television.

A final collage of some of Nadine’s photos with her two brothers. There’s no denying the genetic link, eh?
