The Oldest Aga
The closing date for The Daily Telegraph competition was the 31st December and we've been inundated with entries. We are in the process of going through the vast pile of post and will be answering every single one. I had hoped to answer them all as they came in, but it quickly became apparent that this wouldn't be possible. The stream of letters was fast and furious and the final day of the competition alone saw 250 entries landing on my doormat.
I've had a truly wonderful time reading through the entries and learning so much as much about the social history of Britain as about the various Agas that have witnessed its unfolding.
I'm currently sitting at the kitchen table going through the final few hundred entries and am getting quite misty-eyed over the fact that soon I'll be finished and won't have my daily history lesson to look forward to.
