I have a small indoor pitch at Kempton on Tuesday and am taking the car, so being very tight on space I am hoping that all of this, M & I will fit in!!

Florence has asked to stay at home which is good as it may have been a toss up between her and the flask & sarnies, and I know which would win if it was up to M!!

The new header was taken last Friday evening at Lulworth cove where after leaving The Dairy House, Woo & myself went for a swim – IT WAS FANTASTIC!!

Maybe we will see you at Kempton?!

Hello

IMG_20120807_114135

I am still having trouble with everything and unfortunately my blog has suffered!

Today I am just posting some practice pics of a stall I am working on for an indoor pitch at Kempton next Tuesday 14th August.

Only a few pictures, and taken in a dingy utility room, and not all of the stock, as I will be taking lighting and other bits that I am collecting from Dairy House this week.

But I thought that you might like to know that I am still here, but just too preoccupied with life at the moment!!

If you are coming to Kempton I we will be indoors in the Bronze ring, come and say hello!!

A quick visit to Dairy House

Technically, a visit to my unit, last weekend we helped our lovely friend move house, as I was just down the road I spent a day expanding and re-arranging my unit, these pictures should give you a flavour of how it looked when it was finished.

Apologies again......

I apologise for not blogging sooner and also fod not mentioning that I have left The Old Pill Factory.
It is still thriving, but my business is taking me in a different direction.
I am taking more space at Dairy House and am concentrating my efforts there.
I can indulge my love of old metal and unusual items which at the moment are proving to be very popular.
How I wish that this was our moving truck!!

The Dairy House today

20120627_163859

A flying visit today with a van full of goodies, mostly slanted towards outdoor living, in readiness for the “Indoor living – outdoor life” fair to be held on Sunday. I have another van full to take down on Saturday.

I apologise……

Bosch_the_Prince_of_Hell_with_a_cauldron_on_his_head

Sometimes life can begin to feel like “Hell” (Hieronymous Bosch), but with no serious, major problems, just the daily grind and small stressful situations. I apologise therefore for not having blogged for a while, one of my main problems with being able to is that my laptop will not upload any photos from my camera or phone so I have to use my phone all of the time and then have to email them to myself!

Amongst all sorts of “goings on”, Tom is finally able to move into his flat that comes with his new job, and I am giving up my unit at Witney. I have been working hard in stocking my unit at Dairy House and am busy keeping it stocked.

I do have some photographs for you, Michael and I had a very rare day out last Saturday, we  jumped in the car and asked Flo “Devon or Wales?” when she had thought for a moment she chose Wales.

We all felt refreshed after a run on the beach at “Southerndown”, the wind was bracing and salty, fantastic!!

Tom is now working here, managing the deer park and raising the birds for the shoot. From the top of Bredon Hill, the view is wonderful, the Malverns to the west and the Cotswolds to the east.

This rock in known as “the elephant”, Flo loved it up here.

I will try to be a better blogger and I do hope that you understand.

Thanks for sticking with me,
