And hey, coincidence, just down the road from me is the village of Camrose in Pembrokeshire Wales. So I looked it up on Wiki and guess what it says about Camrose USA ...<br /><br />There is no factual evidence about the reason for the choice of the name Camrose, but it is generally thought that it was named after the Village of Camrose in Pembrokeshire, South Wales....<br /><br />Well well, who'd have thought it. There's not much in Camrose to be honest but they do have a large vintage tractor show there every year.

It made them last longer and saved money - also in those days we had not yet learnt to be the careless throwaway people we are now. On her own with Jack in that cranky mood, Gracie could have easily been driven to hurt him.

Some are nice and others are just there doing a job. You already know how much I needed to read this about Jack since his behavior is mirroring that of my 2 1/2-year-old grandson.
