David Austin roses...

...from the florist in the village.

What can I say? A little piece of heaven. They smell too. What with these and the unbelievable weather, we're feeling all a bit July in the shop today and tomorrow it's October! What gives?
Anyway, I'm bunking off early today, I've found an amazing blackberry-ing spot. I could tell you where it is, but...blah, blah. Jam making for me this weekend! Well, that and a couple of wines with the girlies tomorrow night. It could get silly...
Bon weekend! XXX

Annie has been...

...at it again.

Went to wonderful...

 ...Norfolk this weekend. Hadn't realised that Sherringham was holding it's annual 40's Weekend. 1940's enthusiasts come from all over to ride in authentic cars and buses ...

 ...dress in amazing authentic clothing...

 ...listen to authentic music...

 ...and take trips on the authentic steam trains...

There were some amazing sights and some fabulous clothes, we thought we'd stumbled onto the set of Foyles War. Many of the men went for the WWII army look and we saw several "Captain Mainwarings" ("Don't tell 'em your name Pike!)  a couple of "Seargent Wilsons" and even a few "Jones's". Everyone had gone to SO much effort - all the shops in Sherringham had sandbags and criss-crossed tape on their windows - most had 1940's window displays - The Lobster pub even had bullet holes! Wouldn't have missed it for anything. I absolutely LOVE Norfolk!

One of Annie's...

...homegrown tomato's.

Oooh-eer missis! Trust Annie to grow fruit porn.
