Hello Ian, Iona, Barbara and families.
I'm sorry to hear about Jennifer passing away.
I have many memories of the good times past tailing lambs, and in particular, Jennifer making sure that we had a "Taste" of Ian's "Special" blend of whisky, once tailing had finished, then a great meal to finish the day.
Good times
Thinking of you all
