Why do I never have a decent camera to hand for a shot like this?

Hatches, matches & despatches

This coming week we’ll say goodbye to Uncle Lionel. Notwithstanding the sombre nature of the occasion, I found out today that my sister & her husband are flying in from the USA. We’ll be travelling to the West Country with my son & his wife, and my Princess will be meeting up with us all the evening before. Not only that, but my cousin, who I haven’t seen for years and her husband are coming over from France too. So although it’s an occasion we’d rather it weren’t, out of the sadness comes happiness.
