My poor folks have been down for the weekend and my Mum’s been pressed into service tying keys onto luggage tags. We’ve had a little production line going – I’ve stamped about 700 luggage tags with our message and Mum has then tied 450 of the tags to keys. I did another 50 so all-in-all we have 500 of the 700 now completed and the remaining 200 part-done. Mum’s been delivered some respite because I didn’t bring home enough keys to complete the job – it didn’t occur to me that we’d get through so many over the course of the weekend.

By the time they go home they’ll have been worked half to death – I am a horrible daughter! (Especially because they are so very kind to me.)
