Show and tell how I loved this idea at school I would talk for hours (given half a chance) about my latest projects…
October is my favourite month of the year. It also happens to be my birthday month. I bet I am not the only one who favours the month they were born in?
I consider October as the ‘in-between’ month as in it is between the fading of the summer and the start of the Christmas rush. For me it is a consolidation month, but also a month of planning.
Show and Tell, My October.
In the half term break my boy and I visited the Haynes Motor museum: he made a beeline for his favourite car and I took nostalgic pictures. How old does it make you feel when the cars of your childhood are in a museum?
Do you remember when steering wheels and seat belts looked like this?
I also took pics of my fave coloured cars….
I was lucky to be invited to the re-opening of our local Lush store in Bournemouth. They have done a beautiful job of refurbishing and restoring the old shop. It was very busy, full of my fellow Instagrammers and bloggers. I came away smelling divine, so did my car for the rest of the week!
I won a competition to stay in this beautiful hotel ‘The Manor’ owned by Laura Ashley. Marc and I had a wonderful break and enjoyed delicious food. We stayed in a superb room overlooking the gardens…lucky me!
My Mum visited from Florida and there was more eating out to be done; breakfast at Bills and Evening meals at out local pub…
Of course there were sewing and crochet plans afoot…more on those later!
…and finally these two!
They have become the best of friends and keep us highly amused when they try to play with each other (The cat is boss, in case you were wondering?)
All in all, October was a tiring, happy month, and I for one am not complaining about that!

How was yours?
