More random stuff!

Hello!

Tomatoes from the greenhouse
you don't mind random stuff do you?

please pop over to my friends folksy shop to look at her jewellery here. I was lucky enough to get some of her beautiful earrings as a pressie off her earlier this year.



It's been a busy few days. Today we went to order the new kitchen and there was changes in the garden.

 Yesterday I went to Halifax.

Borough Market, Halifax
I wandered around the Borough Market.

Built in July 1896
Market Hall Clock

The inside has an octagonal done and

an ornamental clock

You can buy almost anything in the market. But I didn't need to buy any fruit or vegetables this time.
Piece Hall, Halifax
Then I walked around the Piece Hall.

It was opened on January 1st 1779.

And was built to allow hand loom weavers to sell their pieces of cloth, hence the name.

The art gallery in the Piece Hall had a lovely exhibition of textile art showing. One artist was Janet Browne. Pop over to her web site to see her lovely work.


I am looking at some of my photos to enter into the Village Michealmas Show. Remember last year? and then I found out about this.
Best piece of Art Work at show
I am not sure if I will have much to enter this year.

Last piece of randomness. These were the goodies I brought back from London.

  7. Lovely random things. Your tomatoes look perfect - some of ours are still green - we are having to bring them indoors and ripen them on the window sill or in the fruit bowl near the bananas:) Lovely to see the Piece Hall I've always wanted to visit it - when we were last near Halifax (a few years ago now) we didn't get to the centre of the town but did visit Shibden Hall and park on the outskirts:)

  8. The random photos are great! The Piece Hall is beautiful - and that "War Bride's Guide to Life in the U.S.A." looks fascinating!

  9. I've only got one red tomato - I like your row! The lacy leaves took me right back to memories of my childhood - I remember being utterly mesmerised by them, there was a place under a particular hedge on my walk back from infant school where I could usually find one! xx
