Bobby scampered up, too, and with the bairns in holiday duddies crowding about her, and the wee dog lolling at her feet, the Grand Leddy talked fairy stories. She told them all about a pretty country place near London. It was called Holly Lodge because its hedges were bright with green leaves and red berries, even in winter.
"Is that why you think it pretty? I've no need for fine clothes in Mac's play this time, so I can afford a few duddies for myself.
