I am sure it stopped you both in your tracks. <BR/>And daughter dearest knows that there were many photos of her in the house, and she fails to mention that she was very much the boss over her 3 brothers!! He nickname was not 'Little Miss' for nothing. <BR/>Well I must go and write my report of what I was up to on Sunday. <BR/>Tata the nooavrilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08590322938613340825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1478238087865784945.post-69710481389806789972007-02-25T15:54:00.000Z2007-02-25T15:54:00.000ZNo stilettos, how about slippers?Us Ladieshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08793382157442722513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1478238087865784945.post-1270365177911631122007-02-25T14:13:00.000Z2007-02-25T14:13:00.000ZIts just a thought, but my pals having been asking me to ask you if you have any pics of your Mums 3" stilettos, preferably with your Mum in them?<BR/><BR/>Please?<BR/><BR/>John Wjohnwhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00151342622358266790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1478238087865784945.post-32243412410902871622007-02-24T15:46:00.000Z2007-02-24T15:46:00.000ZIncase you're wondering, the post removed was a duplicated one, thats all....Us Ladieshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08793382157442722513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1478238087865784945.post-77980324756844673412007-02-24T15:44:00.000Z2007-02-24T15:44:00.000ZGosh, I can only imagine that was a great shock, learning of Arthur, the eldest brother. You probably wanted to know all about him! I wonder what made your mum choose that moment to tell you? Perhaps she thought it was time to share his life with you.<BR/><BR/>You will notice that mother has yet to sign off as "2nd Lady", I'm sure she has the mind set 'anything but'. <BR/><BR/>Thinking about it, I don't recall any framed pictures of me in her house......Us Ladieshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08793382157442722513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1478238087865784945.post-43435357843388714722007-02-24T15:43:00.000Z2007-02-24T15:43:00.000ZThis comment has been removed by the author.Us Ladieshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08793382157442722513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1478238087865784945.post-52164162733461084662007-02-24T09:50:00.000Z2007-02-24T09:50:00.000ZYour little exchange re 1st Lady and 2nd Lady.<BR/><BR/>My mother always kept a large picture frame on her table showing my brother on one side and myself on the other. When I visited her the first thing I would do would be to put my face to the front, and he would do likewise with his face. This led to us each addressing ourselves as Number One.<BR/><BR/>At the time I'm about 50 and he is 61 so thank goodness there is still a little growing up to be done.<BR/><BR/>One day, she stunned us by saying, "Actually neither of you is number one."<BR/><BR/>"Both of you had an older brother who died at the age of 18months."<BR/><BR/>Neiher of us knew. No one knew. <BR/><BR/>Actually, I started writing this to show that when you get older you don't get less mischevious.<BR/><BR/>And to show, of course, that Mum will always have the last word.<BR/><BR/>But now I suddenly realise that this is probably the very first time that someone has ever written anything about my oldest brother. His name was Arthur. <BR/><BR/>I feel a bit of a gulp coming on. Sorry.<BR/><BR/>John Wjohnwhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00151342622358266790noreply@blogger.com
