...on Saturday, I escaped to outside these four walls for a day of pure indulgence - from vintage finds to food.... Took a trip north to the wonderful 'something different' in West Auckland (below) for a feast of layering net frills, printed 50's dresses, layerings of brooches, landscapes of chandeliers, the smell of beeswax, hats for all occasions, an absolute visual feast...... seriously, if you live within a 3 hour radius it is worth the drive. I am revisiting in the next year or two with a very large van, as their collection of period furniture is wonderful... The next stop was to Corbridge for a pub lunch, a stop off at RE (see above - check out the web site if you haven't stopped off already!!).... the purse was finally brought out from the dark depths of my hand bag and a small 60's tea pot, tea light stands, turqouise candles, a map of great britain, olive soap, a quarter of toasted teacake sweets, and a bunch of statice was pur-chased......now back to two months work so I can go and play out again........I have such a crap boss - all work and certainly no play!!!!!!
