Nicola, thank you so much for joining us on Word Wenches. We're delighted to usher you into some very fine company and dub thee an Honorary Word Wench. You may enjoy all the privileges of that exalted state, primarily that of putting H.W.W. after your name (which will impress wenchly intimates who know, but also the ignorant who don't but will be too embarrassed to ask) and the receiving of a virtual gift.
Since you have stately homes and ancient gorgeousness at your fingertips daily, and since you are a woman who can wear Hats With Aplomb, I thought a new Spring hat might be just the ticket. In fact, sparing no virtual expense, I've chosen three — a casual hat for wandering through bluebell woods, a more formal one for taking tea in the sun with friends, and of course, a hat for Monty (modeled here by a handsome chap called Atlas) ;)
Thank you.
Anne and the Word Wenches
