Off to an Unconditional start.

New Year, new look. Lily has grown a moustache (with a little help from Dee Dee).

Not so many years ago, she went Laser Tagging with me and Mummy in January. Got her own squad now.Once again reprising the role of Mary for the Christmas Panto. That, or more hair dye.Letterboxt wrap up time. And the winner is Timothee Chalamet.

Then, making the most of her Christmas present, she was off to the Odeon for Nosferatu. With matching nails.

Cintra Wonderland. The garden looked amazing with a covering of frost.

And Lily proved why Ziggy was having a spot of difficulty drinking from his pond.

Playing with Precision. That's... that's a bass playing joke.

Christmas barely over and all thoughts turn to Easter.

Chalamet, Chalamet, Chalamet day, the family had a Chalamet day. 

Now the biggie. Lily had her in-person interview for her first choice Fashion Degree course.

She was calm, talked through her stuff (with tutors of Architecture and Animation!) but it was a long afternoon.

Two days later, they offered her an unconditional place. No pressure on A-Level results, she's going to NUA!

There was a celebratory cake, with all Lily's heroes congratulating her on the achievement.

Then a night at the Jazz Club. Jazz!

Here's one of Lily's final art pieces, that she then turned into a garment. And even got a friend to model. Can totally see why you deserved that NUA place, kid.
