I learned a new word today

NEPHILLIM

According to Google
"The Nephillim (plural) are the offspring of the 'sons of God'
and the 'daughters of men'
Genisis  6:4
or
"Giants who inhabit Canaan"
Numbers 13:33

I came across it in "The Lie Tree" by Frances Hardinge
Which is the first book of the month for the Levkas Readers

All made by Paul's fair hands !

Paul sands the dining room table

A beautiful job he has made of it
Mind you my Mother bought it in 1988 and the sun here was the final straw

Mrs Cat inspects the finished job
Now back inside for varnishing
