Although not a Nanny to me, I very fondly called her Nanny Dot, and would have loved her to have been my Nanny. I shall miss you chatting to me at the dinner table, & your interesting stories and smiling face xx

Thank you so much Bert, she loved to hear about “TheCrowd” and I loved that Julia took her to Tanners festival one year - she told me she had a fit of giggles when she tried to go to bed in Julia’s tent and couldn’t get her Wellies off!
