"This is the beginning of a new day. You have been given this day to use as you will. You can waste it or use it for good. What you do today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it. When tomorrow comes this day will be gone forever; in its place is something you have left behind. . . Let it be something good."

At home with Miss Valentina and Miss Olga...

I know you have seen this delightful young lady before, but the pictures were rather blurred, so I thought she deserved a second chance. This is Miss Valentina, she's a romantic soul and quite obviously wears her heart on her - well I was going to say sleeve, but chest would be more accurate, and legs and feet.
She has a penchant for gardening too, especially roses.


She is a happy soul and loves to see gardens, and would like to live on a pretty windowsill where she can look out at the flowers.

This is her friend Miss Olga. Olga feels the cold and has a lovely furry scarf to keep the March winds at bay. She has a GSOH and seems to be winking at you!


More traditional than the fashionable Valentina she has a lovely patterned coat, and beautiful sculptured flowers on the front.


Olga is filled with lavender from Hitchin lavender farm.
