The holiday of a busman


Our vacances were not without flowers, whether visiting other shops, or doing a shoot, or just because it seems i cant go a day without them. Admiring contract flowers in fancy restaurants, snapping off buds of lilac on evening strolls.

I am addicted to flowers.

So much to tell you, the food, the places, the people, sun-kissed cheeks, sparkly eyes and a lot of laughter.

Until tomorrow.

p.s. I added a new page, to answer all the questions that appear in my inbox.

The secret eyebrow threader lady at Turnpike Lane

Hampstead Heath

Cannon 550D and the automatic point and shoot

This blog, BBC news and stylemepretty.

Mr Jones, Mrs Fourie, Miss Butler and my Mum

The Andrew Davies Mr Darcy and Rupert whatshisface in the ITV persuasion.

I used to live in Ralf Harris' house

Having my hair cut or my neck kissed (not by the same person-bit weird)

The smell of home and Mint.

The sound of the front door and footsteps in the hall

P.S freaking gorgeous displays.

D.C., Napa, somewhere across the pond . . . apparently lilac is everywhere . Mmm, springtime.

Well haven't you been missed.

I read the answers but unlike Becca I don't seem to know the questions.

Um, all shades of blue, dashes of red, purples now.

Lilacs, lily of the valley and peonies.

Books, more books, British decorating mags and the NY Sunday Times.

Fresh herbs in bouquets and food. Food, grilled in summer, braised or roasted in winter.

Dogs and 1 cranky cat.

Iced lattes with skin milk, homemade lemonade in summer and hot tea in winter.

Canon SD 1300
Listening to rain in bed.

Gardening in 60 degree temperatures.

Taking a bath after gardening. And I'm off.

Welcome back.
No trousers...
I may adopt your line I can't think where you might find that. It sounds so much more charming then my 'Have you tried Lidl?'
