Peggy Sue's New Friend

I meant to post this at the end of May!

The other day I looked up and saw these two chatting.  It was uncanny really as I hadn't set them up like this, but sure enough they look like they were in deep conversation.


Turns out they have become very good friends having found things in common.

Both of them of course have red/auburn hair.  Robyn is the great (or is it great great?) grand daughter of Emily Bennett who returned to England after the war.  Peggy Sue is of course American and came to England in November 2012, so they have a similar heritage.  Of course Peggy Sue lived through the war being over 100 years old, although she strangely is still a child.  


Having decided they are firm friends, they wanted to have similar clothes. 


These two hand  knitted dresses look so pretty on them.  It was a lovely wool to knit with and drapes well.

They have requested various items of clothing....


Here they have dresses knitted from the same yarn.  The patterning on Peggy Sue's skirt makes it look a little odd. 


The girls were excited to get a new settee


and tried it out for size


Robyn felt sleepy after a while.

In June they had to go to the mainland (blood tests and specialist appointment)


So enjoyed staying up late to catch the midnight ferry!



Peggy Sue met a mermaid and was puzzled as to why she was so far away from the sea and looked most concerned.


Robyn met the resident pig riding dwarf!


Coming back they got to see the ferry leaving the port.



They just chatted on the way back about their adventures.

At the beginning of July they had to go back up again (more blood tests!)


This time the weather was a better, and they got to spend some time in the garden.


They visited with Katie, who belongs to The Princess


Katie showed them the peppers and other plants in the garden.




Wren also joined them.


What fun they had despite it being a very quick visit.

I wonder what they will get up to next?
