You want to see my Mum's tombola at the church fair, it is brilliant, the prizes range from talc (who uses that anymore?) to a tin of beans and what is funnier is that she keeps out the tickets for the 'better' prizes till later in the day to keep people playing. Classic. Despite us all telling her how wrong that is she doesn't see the problem with it!

I've also won a giveaway and am literally stalking the postman until it arrives- it's very exciting!!<br />Lush photos - that dresser is just so pretty.<br />I am the same when taking photos for the blog. A recent photo was staged on my kitchen windowsill- I carefully angled it so that the crappy plastic kid's toys in the garden didn't show, but realised later that the window was absolutely filthy. Hmmm. Oh well, I posted a really small photo, so hopefully no one will see what a slovenly housekeeper I truly am.<br />Have a fab weekend.<br />XxAnnaboo's Househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08114896681029080504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-508363601981497644.post-5284737924275679772011-09-08T23:12:02.904+01:002011-09-08T23:12:02.904+01:00I just found your site through icrochet and I am s...I just found your site through icrochet and I am so delighted.

I bought two lots of cake bunting because I love it so much but didn't want to blog about it because one of them is for a family member. Jooles really is so very clever isn't she.<br /><br />LOVE your dresser, just love it. Our dining room's the darkest room in the house too. Must be the thing with old places, but like you say, it's gorgeous in the evening with pretty lights and candles. I think I need fairy lights for mine too but I *may* have gone slightly OTT with twinkles in this house already... <br /><br />Very excited that Mr C said you can have the study as your work/playroom. Am anticipating a 'big reveal' post which I can drool over for ages. <br /><br />Cannot believe you won a car! Flipping nora. I've never won anything in my life before, am hoping that Lady Luck is saving it all up for a lottery jackpot win for me.<br /><br />Nice china too. Do you have a ledge on that dresser that holds your plates up like that, are they on stands or are they just perched hopefully? <br /><br />Looking forward to seeing Mini's 'ombre' Christening cake. <br /><br />Nicki xxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06569770144344942918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-508363601981497644.post-47199915446097403842011-09-08T21:58:16.030+01:002011-09-08T21:58:16.030+01:00Eh up, she's a reet clever bird is that Jooles...Eh up, she's a reet clever bird is that Jooles.<br />Emily xEmilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17425291811913248009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-508363601981497644.post-9398395491154969952011-09-08T19:48:49.025+01:002011-09-08T19:48:49.025+01:00Winning a car is quite something, especially at 13...Winning a car is quite something, especially at 13!
