In Jamaica in Summer 2011

 Eleena was just 2 years old when we rode this horse in Jamaica. We rode a trusty steed into the ocean to cool him off.

Silent Night: Performed by Mae Edwards and her student Eleena Sutton

Christmas 2020, Eleena has just passed her Grade 2 ABRSM violin exam and Mae is teaching her some Christmas carols. They are both playing 19th century antique German violins that were rescued, repaired and set up from scratch by Eleena's Dad. 

Mae Edwards, Eleena's excellent violin teacher, is playing the very nice Maidstone, Murdoch, violin that is going to be Eleena's big sister (Holly's) Christmas present.

Eleena Passed her Grade 2 Music Examination this Month.

Eleena (aged 11) plays her Victorian Manby of London violin (made in France). 

The violin was completely broken when we bought it off eBay. The back was split open, the table was unglued in 8 places and it had no bridge, sound post, strings, pegs or tailpiece. Her Dad fixed and set it up. It sounds beautiful now. Well, it does in Eleena's hands.

Eleena Gets a Pony

In late 1950's fiction, Smiley got a gun, a bike and a dog - all in different films. 
  

In August 2020 Eleena's sister Holly saw to it that Eleena got a pony and rode it in the wilds of the Downs of Kent, England. She was absolutely thrilled and delighted. The good natured feisty little horse had a good time too.
