Birthday Present

First, I meant to show you all Maggie's portrait of Mum that she did a few years ago and gave to me in September. She has exactly caught how Mum used to sit and read.
Well it arrived at last, my 70th birthday present from the family ... thank you all. Now I can fall asleep safely by the stove!I'm snowed in and the first I knew about the chair was when the man from Streamline and the postman knocked on the door after carrying it up from the roadend ... he couldn't get his van up! It was lucky that they met because the Streamline man could not have done it on his own and I would not have been able to help him much.
Now all my guests can have comfortable seats.

I shall sit in it this evening and raise a dram to you all.
