Summer Dream

    One day we will keep a chicken and a peacock. There will be white canvas curtains with a palm tree print.

Curtain Call

    Still waiting for my camera to be returned. Hopefully I'll have it back this weekend. In the mean time I have been using my old Ricoh. One thing that has resulted from this switch is that I have learnt economy with taking photos. With an old fashioned camera that uses film I cannot immediately review my photos. So I need to be sure that each shot I take is just as I planned.
    A few months ago my eldest was playing in the curtains and it was a bright summery day. The light hit the thick white lining almost creating a professional studio effect. Naturally I had to grab my camera and start snapping away. This was just one of those photos...

Busy Days Ahead

The next few days are going to be crazy busy. As of today I will be sewing like the Mad Hatter, making curtains.
On top of that there are big plans to remove the carpet from the only room that still has the nasty stuff. Once that is done, work will begin laying new floor boards.
It is an exciting time, but will mean that you won't hear from me hear for about a week.
But before I go here's a little something that I wanted to share. Something from my childhood…



Over and out.
