| My family and I |
 |
My parents. This was taken in London,
about 9 months before my birth ;o)
|
 |
My parents again but some years later,
obviously.
|
 |
My gorgeous mother at the age of 20.
Isn't she just adorable???
|
 |
My beautiful stunning angelic mother.
|
 |
My dad and I in Sardinia. I was about
8 and my father my hero. I honestly thought that with his 6'3 he had to
be the tallest man in the world LOL.
|
 |
My dad just came back from some journey
or other and mum and I went to get him at the airport. I remember not wanting
to let go of him for a minute. I was a total daddy's girl LOL.

 |
My adorable mummy with my brother.
He must have been about a year and a few months old.
|
 |
That is my brother now. Who would have
thought that that little boy from the last pic would grow to be 6'5 tall
LOL!
|
 |
My brother and I at a ball in Monte
Carlo, summer of 2000. Don't know if you can see that but he is sorta hovering
down as to fit in the pic with me. And I was already wearing my highest
heels LOL.

This is Ducky our Dachshund. Her real
name is Alexia but since she is so short legged she looks as if she is
waddling a bit. Hence the nickname. She is very much part of our family
and my mother's preferred object of cuddling. She babies her all day long.
Nevertheless, Ducky has to be THEE most intelligent dog imaginable. I personally
think you can tell that already by the look in her eyes.
News Update: Last year one evening in early summer our beloved little Ducky not so long after her 16th birthday, then almost completely blind and deaf, ran away from my mother at our house in Spain. Although my mum and the whole of the resort security were soon searching for her she was never found again. My mother's heart was completely broken and she has still not recovered from losing her. Neither has any one in our family. She was not just a dog. She was a family member, and to me she was just like a little sibling.

My cat Schnitzel. She is elegant, sophisticated,
proud and very much her own person. Of course her sophistication leaves
her somewhat when she gets into my bed at night and wants to be cuddled.
Talk about drooling LOL!

This is our little Mina, also known as Menina, Minnie, Minnie Mou etc etc. She is about 7 years old, very cuddly and affectionate and a total lap-cat. Although she loves us both I do think she has a preference for Nick as she seems to be glued to him most of the time. But then he has apparently always been a total magnet for all cats.
