A very quick post today. I wanted to share with all our readers the newly-erected headstone for Robert. We gathered last Saturday to honour Robert, a year after his passing, and to celebrate the installation of the headstone. It is the work of Victor Daly, friend and stone carver from the Sheeps Head. As our friends and readers know, Robert was obsessed with hares. This is the exact memorial he would have wanted.
Thank you to Oliver Nares for the photographs.

Lovely work. I like to think that Robert has already come back as a hare, and is even now nibbling on fresh grass somewhere, twitching his whiskers appreciatively.

A brilliant conception, most marvellously executed. A breath of fresh hare ! It will delight us all, and it would certainly have delighted Robert, I feel sure.
