I haven't been to Greenwich for years, so it's delightful to see these photos of its environs. You both look wonderful. I wish I could visit the Turner exhibition...just my cup of tea. Glad you got some sun, boys; spring is still a little way off, but it IS on its way, or so they tell us here.... Keep warm.
