Robert Nevil Returns: His Sister’s Mother-in-Law Gains 100 Years

Tuesday 3rd September 2013

The cucumber-bottling idyll is over. Robert Nevil has succumbed to the lure of the Pony Club and returned to our sceptred isle.

Last week was his sister’s mother-in-law’s 100th birthday. She received a card from the Queen but will not be attempting any further ‘Knit-your-own-Royal Family’. The Queen Mother in powder-blue duster coat and off-the-face hat, in fact a seamless whole of knitting, accomplished in her 99th year, was enough.
