Monday = Isabella Day (35)

Today featured a visit to Al and Hazel, and Kate and Andrew, in Altrincham. Their large living room provided a fine venue for some of Kate and Andrew's old toys to be brought out of retirement, all overseen by Kevin the carrot.

The toy below is actually a fold out book, the like of which is no longer available.

Battery operated toys, but the batteries had long since seen better days, apart from an overactive mouse, bottom left below.

The road/railway junction provided slight confusion, as Izzie usually just has to master only a train timetable!

A huge number of rabbits made a bid to escape in a procession from Kate's bedroom...

Then we went home for lunch - with 'Apple Three Ways' for dessert.

After a long nap, a tram ride to Sale and back completed an important errand.

The tram drivers mostly had Christmas jumpers and friendly waves today.

Then it was time to return to Didsbury...
