Father & son

Oh Paul, where do you get all of your energy from? You fair wear me out.

Your correspondent & his delightful assistant have had the pleasure of Shteeeeeve’s company since Saturday, Shteeeeve having business in the Smoke which necessitated early starts and late nights. Although it is always a pleasure to see him (well, most of the time at least, as is customary to say), I detected that his heart was not entirely in his visit on this occasion, for precisely the reasons depicted above. Although most new Father’s are said to be proud, few can have been captured on camera looking quite so glowing as Shteeeeve does on the occasion depicted, and pleasant though hopefully his stay at Howards’ End was, I’m sure he’s glad to be home.
