A VERY PRECIOUS GIFT

Recently, a friend of mine sent me a gift which proved to be something very special. The gift arrived in a large envelope and after opening it, and while starting to remove the contents, I noticed that it was of a huge photograph of Her Grace The Duchess!

I was over joyed at seeing Her Grace’s portrait for she is both beautiful and photographic. When I had removed the gift from the large envelope, I saw some writing close to the bottom of the photograph, and once I read it, I realised that the gift was a calendar.

I sat down and went through the months. Every month displayed a different photograph of Her Grace, each beautiful and remarkable.  I spent an age going through the months and enjoying the wonderful photographs multiple times.

I was amazed by the sheer kindness and thoughtfulness shown by the sender of this excellent gift. I could not believe it, as it was indeed a complete surprise! During the day, I had to keep returning to look at it. I realised that this beautiful gift needed and had to be shared.

And so I decided to share this WONDERFUL GIFT and put each photograph on this website so that SHE WHO MUST BE OBEYED may be seen and admired by others.
