… not only along the valley but elsewhere in Albion. Nicky Bookkeeper reports that it was -7C in Basingstoke as she drove here from London. David is not one to suffer overmuch from low temperatures - an English public schoolboy is not one to feel the cold, after all – and he is merely shivering after the walk from the Singleton family home, a few hundred yards down the road. The Minx has called from London with weather news: Bredonborough was one of the coldest places in England last night, at -8C.

Mr. Romain has recently acquired two items from a house sale he attended in Bude, Cornwall, 45 years ago; two that he could not buy at the time. He has now bought them from the man who outbid him at that sale, and has lived locally for many years. This man reminded Mr. Romain of the Bude sale, which was unnecessary for a dealer of Mr. Romain’s capacity; although Mr. Romain had not been aware that the two pieces travelled from Cornwall to reside nearby, all those years ago.
