Liz Moody's Dulwich Life

Sun 17 Feb
We all went to Mummy’s for lunch today, even Mr M who usually claims he has to work. Mummy was very excited about the lamb. She says it was marinaded in rosemary-infused olive oil made by her next-door neighbour, from olive groves on their estate in Tuscany. She gave it to Mummy as a thank-you for not telling her husband about the little incident with their skiing instructor last week. Honestly, old people these days. No sense of responsibility.
Mr M chomped through lunch in silence. Then he grabbed my arm when we went for a walk through the park, and said we had to have a serious talk. But the boys took that moment to mis-time their bike trick and ploughed into a double buggy, without hilarious consequences. So I don’t know what it was about. Maybe he wants my advice about how to spend this year’s bonus.
