The Peckitt clan ...
gathered again. This time it was to celebrate the head of the Clan's 80th birthday . Brenda is mother to Jack, Ann and Frank. She lives in the same village as she was born in Coxwold. After she married Jacks dad she moved to College Farm at Byland Abbey and eventually retired back to the village. We had a not so quiet Sunday lunch at the Corner Cupboard at Birdforth which is a regularly haunt of the party girl and her friends.The owner Peter Handley did his usually impression of Basil Fawlty while us girls admired the talents of his wife Gerds artistic flare in the way she sets out her showroom shop.Brenda did very well and gave a speech of thanks.Two great grandchildren helped her blow out the candles Unfortunately my camera wants to show pink photos
