All right, Elaine will lead the story and it will open with a discussion on a dinner party for the inspecting colonel. If there are too many names on the first few pages it will be confusing but I think I can get round that by having Elaine talk to the people who are on the buest list. I just have to be careful she doesn't repeat herself as she talks to each invitee about the reason for the dinner party. It could be a way to show different aspects of the need for the sergeant and his wife to become permanent housekeepers. I'd imagined a big party but in order to avoid too many names it will
l be better to limit the guest list but the doctor must be there and maybe pippa the craft girl.
It still amazes me that this wall hanging is made from nothing more than flour and water, painted and varnished, of course, but still flour and water.
