I seem to have been corresponding all day Alice

But it is always a pleasure to chat to you

And yes it is true that Josie and I when we remember

Gift the 1965 Churchill Crowns to any visiting brats

I have quite a large collection of them

Our reasoning is that Churchill was a great man/ leader

He made mistakes but do we all not make mistakes

We just want the brats to be aware of the great history

Of the United Kingdom which is currently

Being attacked by malignant minds

You refer to the academics at a college in Cambridge

And their criticism of the Churchill

It was noted that he led an Empire which was worse than the Nazis

Do me a favour it annoyed me at the time and still does today

If I was in charge I would have sacked the whole lot of them

I do hope that Carroll still has her coin

Which believe it or not is still legal tender

Your daughter is so like you and Lewis

She will go far and has chosen a fine college

I have just found out that Josie is in Venice

What a wonderful place to be

I am going to sit with Virginia later

A tonic water would be fine

As I never tire of rivers

The sun might have set on our Empire

But not on the Thames ….
