NO ENTRY MADE

Editor's Note: The Eccles baby would have been Marvin who was coming up on a year old.  Aunt May was still to have two more babies having her http://karenswhimsy.com/medieval-crusades.shtmlast one at 46 years-old.  No thank you.

Well thank goodness the football is back.  How were they getting on without it for so long?  

While I'm not really reading ahead, I have found I need to a little bit to be able to post daily.  Therefore, in the entry when Chas Wygrene tells them of another loss, I think the missing noun--which is clearly an animal--is in fact a sheep. You will shortly see why I assume as much.

In 1901, they are so excited to keep setting up their house they are up and visiting before breakfast!
