In this video I will re visit Grosvenor Hall, as one of our "miniature family" commented to say that they had the same house, and would like to see in more detail, what John boy had done to the inside regarding false walls etc.
Hopefully this will offer some ideas for other folk who are thinking of doing the same to one of their own houses!

Hello Rich- Charlie and I are happy that you are much better. We really appreciate the 'shout-out' about our home-town Poughkeepsie NY. You are in the 2% of non-Greek people who can pronounce my name. I made tiny handouts for the other 98%. Your fairy story has the best ending! Thanks to John for the charming house tour- those back walls really are neat.

Hello my lovelies! Yes I'm one of those people who DON'T think because they are white/English, that the world should revolve around them! I know that's a bit controversial (and I'm not usually like that) but it does annoy me when folk can't be bothered trying to learn how to pronounce things that aren't English! I really like to embrace the fact that there are so many different types of humans on our planet. It's always interested me, about how different languages/accents have evolved. And that we have so many different colours in the human race. It would be so very boring if everyone were the same! ❤️

It’s so nice to start off the day with a laugh. Oh damn the rubbish truck has just gone by and I forgot to put my bin out. Am going to have a smelly bin all week. Sorry, too much info.

Happy your feeling a little better Rich 🤗 we loved John Boy’s Grovener House, each room beautifully styled and dressed. I hope he does another haunted themed house one day 👻 maybe a horror movie themed room one that’d be so cool 👌 Your story was lovely I remember those photo’s in a British supernatural mag back in the day. Lesley says Fortean Times. Wonderful fairy photos still have that innocent magical quality. Thank you for helping the lady so she could still go down to see her garden visitors you no doubt brought back such joy into her life 🤗 Rest up bud wishing and JohnBoy a lovely Friday

Hello Richard, glad you are starting to feel better, John's house is really lovely, he's done a marvelous job with it. I love your stories they are hilarious 😂 😂 I love the Cottingley Fairy's story, if I remember rightly they didn't admit it was a hoax until they were old ladies, I'm sure one of them never admitted they weren't real at all. I'm looking forward to seeing your next commission, have a lovely weekend. Best wishes to You, John and the Kitties from Yorkshire 😊

Hello Diane, yes that's exactly right. The hoax wasn't revealed until they were old ladies. But one of the ladies said that the last photo (the fifth one taken) wasn't a hoax. And that photo looked different than the other ones they'd taken! So I suppose we will never really know the truth! 🙏😊

My daughter, when she was a small child, saw fireflies for the first time and said "Daddy!! Blinky-butts!!"
