I haven't posted for a while and there is a reason for that. I was going to tell you about my grandfather, my mother's father, who was in the Grenadier Guards.

I have some photos of him but I really wanted to show you the silver spoons he won for shooting.

They really are worth looking at.

My mother has them, and she lives in Oxford,so next time we go and visit I will photo them and show you all.

Here are some beautiful butterflies to show you for now.
