Eowyn, Coco and Bens all go to school at the University of Washington ... where the girls were born! It's lovely having lunch with Bens and whichever girl isn't at school then.

Our poor little car broke down today and had to be towed home!! Deary me. Bens has it going again, but says it's only a matter of time. Ah, in Cambridge, all 5 Jones' got around on 2 sturdy bikes ... and as it happens, Bens and I each have sturdy bikes, and the girls too, AND their fab chariot!!!!

This is Jonathan, who has lived all his life in Kosovo. Eowyn & Coco loved his company. My ailment has now been with me for 3 weeks. I just watched http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ihuv5z6nqWw and was much amused. I don't think anybody reads these blogs any more. The only people who comment on mine are Bens and me. Hello!
