Embroideries by Juliet Ace

The Goods are a model family who have just moved to a new neighbourhood.

Alison is so pretty, so pert, so industrious, so witty and caring and loving.

Andrew is so successful, so fit, so gregarious, so witty and caring and loving.

David and Jonathan are cleverer, more sporting and more interested and interesting than anybody else's children.

But have the Goods become a little smug?

What do the neighbours think?
