Welcome to our dearest visitors to the Barge!
I must take this moment to commend your exceeding ability to cope with the wonders that surround you, particularly those of you that seem to be lately learning that your little treasures are indeed no longer so innocent as you knew them. To think! Had I either a mother or father enduring in my own memory, I might be subjected to the same invasion of privacy that your brood will surely be feeling once you've gone.
Possessions taken or broken, diaries read, friends approached.
You are rather a nosy lot, aren't you?
