My new hat

Good morning to you all. I thought you might like to see my lovely new hat that I purchased at a department store recently.  I am getting ready for the Melbourne Cup.  Not that it can compare to Ascot you understand. The race track is not even a proper shade of green, and you get all kinds of silly girls wearing hardly any clothing and bowls of fruit that they call hats, on their heads.  So I thought being a lady of such fine stature, I should set an example. Not that I am likely to make any impression on the crude bunch of philistines that live here. 

I am hoping that Liz may come out for a visit. It's been a while since we've shared a glass of fine Sherry and some egg mayonnaise sandwiches. But it is hard for her to leave her kingdom and the corgies would miss her terribly.

Well I hope you all have a spiffing day.
Yours Lady O.
