Visit from Micky and cousins

My sister visited today to borrow my sewing machine, and Elin, Lindsay and Max came too. They brought a delicious custard pastry with almonds on top. Louka had the time of her life playing with her cousins, giggling and squealing like a teenager at a fun park. Micky commented she looks like a little koala in her pigtails. Max also played with the puppy Katy, who probably got more attention this morning than she's had in her life before.

While Louka played inside with Elin and Lindsay, Micky and I wandered round the garden looking for cuttings for her to take home. She took some frangipane, nasturtiums, rubber-tree and tibouchina.
