In jeder Familie gibt es Verwandte, die Ärger machen, allerdings sind sie in meiner untot... Meine Großmutter, Agnes Bartlett, war einmal die Inhaberin des Wollgeschäfts Cardinal Woolsey's in Oxford. Dann starb sie und hinterließ mir ihren Laden, ohne mir jedoch mitzuteilen, dass sie gar nicht wirklich tot war.

I thought judging the Willow Waters garden contest would be fun. A nice way to get to know a few more of my neighbors in this beautiful Cotswold village. I’d get to see how the best gardens grew, maybe even nab a few tips for my own garden. I did not expect the competition to be to the death.
