My rainy day

  • First of all I want to thank you all for the lovely comments on my last few posts, The last post has now got 45 comments.

  • I want to thank and welcome all my new readers who have visited the blog, I have found so many new fantastic blogs through this !
  • I also am so glad there are many of you who share such a wondrous love for the fifties and sixties - the fashion, the decor music and simplicity !

  • I am in the process of arranging a few follow up posts which I hope you will find interesting !

Today: 17th June 2009


I woke up to a dull morning, began to get ready to head over to Manchester, and then - The rain came. So i have decided to stay in and try to get my room sorted and cleared out !



As much as I love hearing the rain hitting the window as I sip tea inside nice and warm, I do wish the sunshine would come back out to play!


So today I am sorting my room, as i mentioned before.

I want to get rid of lots of things and put things to sell as well as a trip to the charity shop!
The photo above shows my room, messy I know but you should have seen it before i moved all the suitcases!

I have almost everything back from my flat - here I am at home .. for the time being. Therefore a clear out, new start and maybe even a painting session when it is all done !

I hope to have it done today!... Ive said that a few times over the past week!



Above are some lovely finds from a recent charity shop trip with my grandma. I think they are just lovely




Last of all I am dreaming of Glastonbury and KICKING myself that I did NOT get myself a ticket this year. What a stupid mistake!
More photos from last year's Glastonbury can be found here




Im going to get back to my cup of tea and my room!

Thanks doll,
I love the charity shop finds, I never see anything good around here!

The site is pretty easy to use, I believe it's fairly new,
but it's much simpler than Etsy from what I can tell!
