I'm sure if Hilda thinks Evvy should be there, then she is right. I'm just glad I don't have to make the decision. |

Evvy made an effort and stopped crying, she raised her head and looked up into a face full of compassion and understanding |

Cornelia smiled slightly, pausing as further chest pains appeared, “Don’t worry, I’ll say all the right things,” she said, “The one thing a lifetime in business prepares you for is lying.” |

Well, I'm glad Corney's going to try not to hurt Evvy -- and hope the reality dissipates the last of this irrational grudge. *cue lots of please, please* |

Just amazing Lesley, absolutely brilliant... *hoping Evvy isn't outside the room, accidently hearing all Corney has just said* |

You cannot write like that without putting yourself through the wringer. Thank you for a completely absorbing story, a wonderful read. |

Let's just say that none of you have cried as many tears as I have. More later - I keep putting off writing as I know it's going to be more of the same. |

Nell looked across at her partner’s face, seeing the strain and sorrow in Hilda’s expression mirroring her own. “Hilda, we will have to support everyone else through this.” |

glad that both Corneys will be remembered. I suppose Hilda and Nell will give the rings to Evvy "from her mother"? I hope you'll give us a happy Christmas - particularly as this is an ending in one way with the Prefects finishing school |
