THE YOUTH OF TODAY AND THEIR INCREDIBLE ART















I went to my brother's school art show on the weekend and was delighted to see that some young people of today are not impressed by silly D-listers such as Amy Winehouse and Lilo Lohan. 


When asked to take part in an art project focusing on "celebrity", sensible Grace chose a proper old-fashioned star of stage and screen, Sir Lord Alan Titchmarsh. 


I thought that all my fellow bloggers would be greatly cheered to see this wonderful sign that the strength and old-fashioned values of our British youth are not yet completely sapped by all that Wii-ing around. A top-class gardener like Lord High Sheriff Titchmarsh can still command a lot of respect amongst the young. 


In case you're curious about what Sir Lord Alan is saying in this fantastic portrait, it's: "Mmm, that Carol Smiley's got a nice patio, not to mention 'er rake."

I agree about her patio. Maybe not her rake though.
