Where has The Story Girl been? Oh dear, as I posted a long while ago I was sick and well I have stayed sick Thankfully I am on the mend and will be back with some postings in the very near future. I guarantee that the cold and my illness have not kept my eyes closed to the many lovely things going on around me (though I suppose to be truthful these factors have slightly dulled my senses to them a bit). In the meantime I leave you with this:
