Mary A's fireplace

Mary A, ( I am Mary B) lives across the road in a delightful little cottage. She is a wonderful 95 year old lady and we see quite a lot of her. She has decorated the living rooms for Christmas with great care as always and is anxious to know, 'Is it alright?' This little fireplace which is no longer used, is in the dining room and as you see the copper ware is kept shining brightly. When I popped in this afternoon she had just got back from church and was full of enthusiasm for the day.
