Letters from London

Posted by Bluebell Woods on

I would like to share with you some letters from a friend of mine. I find her stories so funny though she doesn't always realise it. Her name is Tinkers and she lives in North London.

It's positioned near the fireplace in this great big house, which I share with a lovely family. They are a little strange though. The family have a magic box, which they...
