Great words this week Louise.
Lisle ...Hi Louise,<br /><br />Great words this week Louise. <br /><br />Lisle brings back lovely memories of my nan, with her stockings, girdle and suspender belt,under several layers of clothes. She also always wore a hat, with a massively long hatpin jamming it into place. All this before she would even consider leaving the house!<br /><br />Glaive, isn't a word I have come across before, but they do look positively dangerous. At least your son was interested enough to ask the question in the first place.<br /><br />Thanks for the trip down memory lane.<br /><br />YvonneYvonne @ Fiction Books Reviewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14821114534056290177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6261834677579395686.post-91878211353614948032012-04-26T11:28:23.868+10:002012-04-26T11:28:23.868+10:00I like your two new words this week.
