First of all a big Thank you for all your comments and welcome to any new followers. I have put you on my side bar list as the 'follow' link won't work for me, I have tried to follow you back.....honest!
What was I up to last week?
I spent a lovely day in Preston with Shan.
I noticed they have made a film of a book that has been sat on my shelf for years so I just had to start to read it....quickly before the film came out. I have to say I am really enjoying it.
Friday and Saturday was spent in the garden I'll tell you all about that in another post. Mostly I have been doing some work for my HLTA to be handed in in early September.

| peas from my mums allotment |
I start with full gusto then my energy seeps away and I never these days get as much done as I intended or in fact as much as I use to....I feel old!
But some creativeness has to be shown...Not mine I have to say!

| A Shan Cushion |
I also visited my mum and we paid a visit to her allotment. Of course I came home with lots of lovely veg.
So we went to the seaside.........
But I will leave that for another post......maybe tomorrow?
Looks like you had a lovely, lovely week! Hope this one is good too! Ros
ReplyDeletei really love the row of phone boxes xx
ReplyDeleteLovely photos as usual - I know what you mean about getting things done and the intentions to do things and then the time just goes and most of the things you were going to do just haven't been done! I have many days like this! Love the cushion which your friend made and which the cat has managed to find but then they always do, don't they?

OOOoo that book is on my to do list. I have just finished The Friday night Knitting Club ages after the rest of the world. I loved it so much, I ordered the sequel books from Amazon today.

I loved Rise of the Planet of the Apes, but then I'm a fan of the original film. Did you cry? And how do they make the apes so realistic?
ReplyDeleteAnd what happens at the end of One Day is.........................
Nah, that would be mean (and I don't know as I haven't read it yet... it's on my Kindle for later this week!)
Lovely, lovely photos, Lyn! Love the one of the phone boxes! By way of coincidence, I recevied the Dartington Barn Cinema Guide for the next few weeks (yes, a cinema in an old barn, what could be more 'Dartington', har, har ... and for those who don't know about Dartington, then watch Nicholas Crane's Town programme from last Thursday on iplayer!) and One Day is listed for Tuesday 4th and Wednesday 5th October, and I plan to see it. But before then I really ought to read the book.
ReplyDeleteOh, I've love to visit the Harris Museum & Art Gallery - there's that wonderful collection of scent bottles there, one of the largest, if not the largest in the country!

Great architectural shots! Really enjoyed the photos in this post!
ReplyDeleteLovely cushions. Your cat looks like my Deva. She is almost the same colouring but her tail isn't as stripey:)
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely day. Beautiful pictures. Looking forward to what else that you have share.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos. Sounds like you have been having a nice time.
ReplyDeleteCheers

Thanks for a lovely day in Preston and I'm glad you like your cushions. Lucy looks perfect with the "I ♥....." one!x
ReplyDeleteThe new Planet of the Apes film is next on my list.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you've been having a great time Lyn - just read all your Postcards from France posts. Stunning photos!

I really do think you could host a television show, and highlight all of your wanderings and projects, and of course your sidekick would be sweet Lucy.
