Thank you for all your lovely comments on my last post. It’s good to know I’m not alone in feeling this way and really appreciate what a lucky blogger I am to have such awesome readers.


Yesterday B and I were talking about this subject and thanks to him, my genius buddy, and all you gals I’m feeling much better. You know what? I have the coolest husband, a beautiful best friend and a sister who totally rocks. I’m a lucky girl. And I’m keeping the belief that new friends are on the horizon, waiting for me to find them.


And what’s so bad about pen pals anyway? Friends who live miles away are still just as beautiful via a letter or email and are always there when you need a chat. So here’s a shout out to all my pals around the world; school friends, random friends and blogger friends.


These are some brilliant charity shop finds I scored today. A blue and white stripey vintage duvet set with pillowcases and a pair of amazing 1970s 10ft long curtains. There has to be at least 6 metres of fabrics in these babies. And while it kind of feels sacrilegious cutting them up, I'm imagining a few cushions and a quilt backing. And this little haul? £6 in total.

  5. Just found your blog -- had to read on when I read that you were married 29th May 2010 as I'm getting married the 28th of May this year! Funny what sucks you in when wedding planning!

    I thought I'd drop you a line to say I love your wedding shots! What a beautifully put together English wedding!

  9. unfortunately sometimes distance keeps friends away but you are never truly apart if you can write to each other via mail. It takes a little longer but somehow handwritten letters can make up for the distance.
