...billowing clouds and pillowslips!
...but don't be fooled by those blue skies, it's still chilly here, considering it's now June 1st, feels more like October and still cold enough for chunky little legs to be wearing woolly tights!
and horses to still be wearing their blankets!
The weekend heralded the start of our little annual arts festival which had some interesting stuff to look at, like....
.....some topless mermaids!
....and fibre glass torsoes
which are perhaps not everyone's cup of tea but I loved them. I just couldn't work out where I would put them if I had bought them - somewhere far out of sight from my Mother, that's for sure!!
......and I was quite surprised that I remembered most of the tunes to the hymns inside, a testament to my old school's religious education!
These windows were very interesting in that they were a memoriam to the fishermen who died fighting for their country in the horror that was World War I. They were remembrances for both the Army and Navy.

Happy day to you too nana....you've changed your header! Lovely pics..xx
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to your niece and all your family on the pregnancy! I love the mermaids, but I am sure that I would have to give the torsos a miss - for similar reasons to you!! xx
ReplyDeleteOh, another new baby! How exciting. I love hanging things out to dry. Around here, it's towels and swimsuits now that we're back to the pool for swimming lessons every day. I hope the weather warms up for you there too!
ReplyDeleteHello dear Nana! The sweater you are making is beeeyooootiful! Well done! I haven't watched Game of Thrones but I know a lot of people like it.
ReplyDeleteWe have a warm day today ,so I have laundry on the line and the birds are tweeting. Sweet!
The art at your festival is awesome! Wow!
I can't get to grips with game of thrones - must try again/harder - there's so much to catch up on.
ReplyDeleteHow lovely to be an auntie - your family is sprouting all over the place! Betty

Happy 1st June to you too Anne ... that knitting is looking rather lovely. How wonderful to be a great aunt - I am one also, my neice had a wee boy recently. I loved that fisherman memorial window, its just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteLovely to read your interesting post especially the piece a.bout the fisherman's church. I think having been to sunday school and church from a young age those hymns i still probably know as well.
ReplyDeleteLike you i love all that quirky stuff and would love to display the in a studio if i had one.
Regarding the rose buds on my post! i would pick them on a dry day then hang in a dry and airy place . I find the drier they get the more fragrance they become.
Thank you for visiting my blog and leaving a comment. .......xx
I'm loving your wash day photos! I dry everything indoors these days and miss seeing things billowing on the line.
