Nigel’s First Priority

While Darrell was desperate to the see the fruits of all his Dame Kelly Hoppenesque interior re-vamping, Nigel’s first priority was his beloved swans …….

Last year only two swanlings survived and I know Nigel had a few sleepless nights worrying about George, Paul, John and Ringo …….

……… but judging from the size of them today I think they can now probably hold their own and ease Nigel’s mind.

Crystal knobs asparkling might “do it” for Darrell, but for Nigel happiness is  …..“all along the river, by the rushes tall, Nigel’s swanlings are a-dabbling, up tails all!”
