show and tell
Hi Sweeties
My day today went like this - I met up with Donna, Jasmine, Alfie and Elizabeth but could only spend a brief time with them before I had to go home to do some of my college work. I have loads of writing to get done and the deadline is getting closer and closer.
Then I got so engrossed in my writing that I forgot to watch Antiques Road Show and forgot to prepare my Sunday dinner. When I realised, it was too late to get it done - I'd have had to have eaten at about 10pm - well now, in fact. So I ended up having fish and chips :o{
So, to cheer myself up, I packed my books away and grabbed my camera. I took lots of photos of my charity shop and boot sale treasures. I'm going to show and tell four of them. They are four of my table lamps - I have many more. The pic showing a bright orange base was a boot fair find but I bought the shade from Habitat. I must say that a huge proportion of my favourite finds were pointed out to me by Dons. She can spot a treasure from a mile away!
Maybe I'll put some more kitsch things up for you another time?

Trac - it's nice that you can share how you are feeling with others - it didn't read like self-pity to me :o}
Betty - it's great how we're all keeping RW's blog going for her while she's away - hee hee

i'd give anything for chips and a pea fritter. i did have some very good chips at an irish pub the other night though, so that was good.
