An arsonist set fire to the Mrs Doubtfire house in January this year - fortunately only the front door and mat was affected, unlike Hanworth. </span></span></div>

Sorry to disappoint but that was NOT our tree! Sometimes I wonder if I should have had a strategic approach to decorating our tree - you know, stick to a single colour like this one</div>

You may well ask what it is - it is a family manger of course. Miss HH made it in about 2000. Suddenly there it was under the tree, her face occupies the manger (it is a huge cut out !) and I am standing on the right next to my mother and mother in law hoping to be a wise man. Alas, when I asked her what I was, she proudly proclaimed "well you are the cow of course!". Mr HH faired better - he was a wise man alongside my father and grandmother!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Don't dare think for a minute that Hanworth House might not look like this one day - just not this year! It is a year ago this week since we moved into HH for the first time<br />

What's more - it is only up due to some very generous and supportive partners who helped it to be there and I am going to introduce you to each of them in the coming weeks. Pay attention to them because they are VERY good people - and we all should know good people!<br />

This is <em>Lady Musgrave</em> - we are naming each room after a woman who has been pivotal in the history of the house (another post - another day) but Jeannie or Lady Musgrave was the wife of the Queensland Governor 1883-1888 and attended a wedding at Hanworth House in 1886 when the original owner's daughter Cecilia Heath was married. I am just saying!<br />
<br />
And don't think it was the only room I did on the weekend - here is the second room I did <em>Lilian Cooper</em> <br />

Dr Lilian Cooper came to Queensland during Hanworth time - 1891 to be exact and became the first female doctor registered in Queensland. She is very deserving of a room in her honour.</div>
