Marie & Richie arrived this
morning Marie is looking very well
& has got fat. It was a miserably cold & wet day so not a pleasant
welcome to Ireland. Richie is
looking thin & still has the remains
of his cold.
Marie went to see Granny etc
on all the forms of rain & as she
has a cold she is likely to increase
it.
