I am announcing today this most auspicious announcement that will further the friendly exchange that we enjoy with Great Briton.  We have put behind us that small confab that our 2 countries endured a while back, that small issue about tea - NOT ANOTHER TEA PARTY!!!!! - that we have put behind us.

AUSCPICIOUS is the word for today's announcement.  Finally our governments heard the constant plea of such pitiful women as Nana who will sink so low as to beg, cry and roll around in the dirt.
They were not auspicious. But their cause is just and right and so now, without anymore awesome auspiciousness HERE IS THE ANNOUSOUANT:

We can now get a hedgehog!!!!!  And be legal at the same time!!!!!  This is a big change for Nana. We are always grateful when Nana returns home without new handcuffs.

Grandpa has been notified of this current legality and he was told on a full stomach while watching a football game. I suspect that he did not QUITE hear the specifics to which he nodded and apparently agreed.  Nana is a shrink after all.
