"A true friend is someone who thinks that you are a good egg even though he knows that you are slightly cracked." (Bernard Meltzer)

To celebrate Christmas 2006 and to thank you for the support you have given to this particular slightly "cracked egg" over the past few years. This grove is for Kirsten, for Brigit & Ali, for Jennifer & Ross and wee Amy, for Kathy & Alec, for Jackie, and for Eileen & Max. We don't see each other as much as we used to, and this grove is to remind us that, although we may grow at our own pace and in our separate places, we still have strong roots in the same patch of earth and we provide shelter and support for one another. Even if we are starting to get a bit more gnarled with age...

With much love and very best wishes for the coming year,

Alison
