We have just realised what a huge influence we have had on world affairs in the past. We always knew that, when Robert got his first pair of glasses in 1943, the Italians surrendered a week later and that, when Pikey was born in 1945, a month later Germans surrendered; what we never knew, until this week, was that, on the very same day on which Robert was born in 1935, the Greek monarchy was restored.
Kate, Charlie and Patrick, with a whole load of scouts and their parents, flew down to London last weekend to attend a Scout event at the Dome. They spent the weekend in London and visited the London Dungeon at which this photograph was taken. Charlie is on the left in the back row, Patrick is one from the left in the middle row and Kate is in white in the front row. The picture made it into the Dundee Courier. They had a very good although we suspect they were exhausted at the end of the trip.Pompey has had a visit to the vet and three more rotten teeth have been removed. She seems fine now and the menu for the future is softer food.
We are OK although progress with Robert’s knee is not as speedy as we had imagined but it’s only three weeks since the operation – patience is a virtue although often in short supply where Robert is concerned.
Love Robert and Pikey

This photo is so awesome. Everyone should click on it to see it larger. I am overwhelmed by the infectious spirit of adorable violence in this photo!
is that a kilt Charlie's wearing?
Yes, Edward, we think he is. Wonder what clan it is.
Must be something wrong with me or my computer: I tried to follow Susie's advice and it promptly went smaller! I am ready to accept it is some reflection on my lack of computer skills...

Yes Susie is correct. Just click on the picture and this will enable you to open it on your computer. Then enlarge it. If still in doubt ask a man!!!!
That is amazing! (No man required, just clear, idiot-friendly instructions.) Thank you.
