My Aunt (not Aunty as she gentle reminded me as I got older – or was it as she got older!?!?), had a distinct charm and a love for the little things – her roses, cats, and our joint enthusiasm and excitement of visiting Boyes with her when we visited! Her chocolate biscuit tin was a highlight of every visit, a small tradition that always felt special – the dilemma of selecting just a Twix, Club or Penguin! Aunt Muriel always made you feel welcome, and her warmth lives on in those simple moments we’ll always remember.
