LYDIA

Yesterday was a 'red letter' day.....another long letter from Lydia (My youngest Granddaughter)aged 13. One day I am determined to publish her letters in a book and call it 'Letters From Lydia'. Much news is passed on....this letter deals again with the guineapig situation and how 2 pet guineapigs were (unknowingly) pregnant when given to Lydia by a friend. So far a 3 month old guineapig has had 5 babies. One has died which was most traumatic! Now the other guineapig is about to give birth and the question is......
Who Is the Father?????
Lydia at first thought it must be the father of these 2 guineapigs, but now is sure it is the brother. Such goings on and I haven't met any of the gps yet. Together with long newsy letter is the 2nd part of the cartoon drawings detailing the story of the guineapigs. Lydia is an excellent cartoonist and I'm sure one day could have a career drawing if she would like to. She is also planning a 12 mile cycle ride for Children in Need (UK) and needs sponsors. Of course I am absolutely sure I have no readers out in the ether, but I am sure you will like to hear of her progress as she gets into training.
Lydia, if ever you read this let me say that your letters are the very best. I have told you this often. When a letter arrives we sit down with tea and biscuits and have time with Lydia (its the next best thing to being with you) and you know how very much we love you. Now I have to plan my reply (with love and hugs, Grandma).
