It's the genealogist's bane! There's a Robert Battersby somewhere in Britain who's still hiding from me because of it, the blighter. Have a very happy new year, whenever you decide it begins.

These New Years Cards are beautiful. Lovely choices. Wish we could still send out cards like this.

Have a lovely New Year Teresa!
