Visiting friends....


Paul and I had a wonderful visit with Alison. and her husband this weekend in Littlehampton. Their house is truly lovely, so fresh, bright and VINTAGE! I spent quite awhile just looking around and admiring their lovely home. I took this photo of Alison as soon as we arrived and she opened the door, I think it's really cute!



They cooked us a delicious meal and then we wandered off to the charming little town of Arundel for a walk around the antique shops. Of course Al knew the best places to find vintage goodies and I didn't come home empty handed! I bought a gorgeous large wooden "trug" painted a pale green with pretty vintage floral fabric in the base. I could have spent a fortune actually because I saw so many lovely things but I did try to practise some sort of restraint!





Because Alison is moving off to new Zealand, she is clearing out some of the items she will not be taking with her when she moves...oh dear, what a shame she cant take everything with her...Yes, I came home with a car load of lovely items. It felt a bit like Christmas for a vintage gal like me.

We really did have a great day together and I will miss my friend and her wonderful hubby when they leave but I know very well that you never know where life will take you, we could easily end up being neighbors in the future, it wouldn't surprise me at all.








bye for now....
