It was a nuisance. An adventure was one thing - but an adventure without anything to eat was quite another thing. That wouldn't do at all. (The Valley of Adventure)

Re: Happy Birthday Onkel Quentin
Thank you for your kind wishes.
Unfortunately I only discovered this treat today!
I didn't know that my date of birth could be read!
Thank you very much my dear friends, I hope we can meet again soon.
(I will never forget this sunny 12. May 2018 in Exbury)
