I want to win the lottery so that I can have a pied-a-terre in London, a cottage in the Lake District and another cottage with ponies grazing on the lawn in New Forest. <br /><br />The only drawback to this plan is that I never buy lottery tickets. Oh, well, I can come to your blog and visit along with you.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09268304194276808749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4493398068080107368.post-90546992550877615472012-11-16T14:38:20.573-08:002012-11-16T14:38:20.573-08:00Em - we spent a while up on the ceramics floor.

So much history in every piece, as well as the art and design behind them. <br /><br />I hope your Dad`s work is still on display. It must be very good to have even got through the door!<br /><br />Rachel - I have just enlarged that photo. It is not the Grace Kelly figure of my imagination, but a young woman with her i pad on , as you said! There was me thinking it was a huge, expensive earring....:-)Dartford Warblerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04352965211143836326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4493398068080107368.post-3184139426871241282012-11-16T14:37:22.728-08:002012-11-16T14:37:22.728-08:00I love those glorious autumn days when there are t...I love those glorious autumn days when there are those shouting blue skies with nary a cloud. You were lucky to get good weather for your outing. Maybe there is an on-line court calendar where you could look up to see who was in the landau.

They have some of my dad's ceramics there but I don't know if they're actually out on show nay more.
