Harry was in a huff throughout and wouldn't even be Ball Boy- apparently someone had quoted him a piece from the Stones of Venice, by John Ruskin: 'Remember that the most beautiful things in the world are the most useless; peacocks and lilies for instance'.
Where's the cream? This being Wimbledon and all that, the Bossy Rosecomb organised a game of tennis. It was mainly them against us - quite a manic affair. Mandy, Mrs Pippy, Mrs Black, Alice and me on one side and a whole bunch of Them on the other side. Truffle, Mrs White and Harvest were the umpires - not wanting to move so much (not at all in fact). Harry shows his disapproval I am still not sure which side won, but we celebrated with strawberries in the traditional manner, which made everyone quite jovial and the tensions of the tournament were quickly forgotten.

About UsHello! My name is Gordon and I am a Gold Sebright and my best friend is Sylvia. She is a Silver Sebright. We live with our foster parents on a small farm in the country. We thought that we would put our take on life and what we get up to through the year into a diary for you. All the characters are real and the events are a true record, interpreted with a modicum of poetic licence. We hope you enjoy it. Love Gordon and Sylvia Archives
