Into the Summers Sky ..

Next Sunday I'm off to Malvern to the Three Counties Show, i will take my camera and I'm hoping to upload some pictures of the day. Fingers crossed the weather is kind to us. Iv never been before so i cant tell you what to expect, although in 1994 i was living in Malvern in a lovely little place at the foot of the hills. I miss this place and i often dream back to it, here i found myself and grew into a women...

The gardens really blooming now, iv had to go into the garden in between the showers to stake, tie in and cut back.. The minute we get some rain and sun, the plants grow like theres no tomorrow! The French beans are really going for it now and there are loads of strawberries that will ripen, the Blueberry plant has given me some fruit this year, it will be a race to see if i get them first or the birds.. Talking of birds, Kittie brought one in the other day a young starling.. I was sat at the desk and a fluttering in the living room scared the life into me, Kittie went nuts and i looked up to see a small bird on the bookcase. I managed to catch this frightened bird and release him back into the garden where he flew of into the sky.. That, is one lucky bird and i hope he found a safe branch to catch his breath and to calm down..

Went thrifting the other day and found some beautiful pillowcases with tiny flowers on, 99p for four! and in brilliant condition, cant ask any more than that can you? I also saw some lovely little teacups and saucers that cam with a jug and sugar bowl and unfortunately i never brought them, I'm hoping they will still be there on Monday, but i very much doubt it. I still have not invested in a sewing machine, i just can not make up my mind which one to get. I did see Dunhum have a few in there at good prices so i may get one, just to see how i get on with it.... I'm off now to catch the news before Sage awakes, but i hope you have a wonderful weekend and the weather is kind to you...

OOh let's see your goodies that you bought. I love the charity shops and cannot resist a browse. I bought a fascinating book yesterday for just a £1 called spells and charms. It is full of delightful little rituals for well being, the home, love and the seasons, involving flowers, crystals, natural objects and mantras, I am so enjoying browsing through it.
