Yippee  the car boot sales have started !
I went to my first one on Saturday, didn't get there until about three hours after it started but it was still very enjoyable and perfect weather

 Some old bottles to put flowers in and a lovely old trowel. I wonder what stories it could tell?

 Some china pots, bells and egg cups (to sell on)

 A pretty blue necklace for 75p which I am wearing now (as if I dont have enough necklaces!)

 Some vintage pastry forks and fabric jam pot covers (to sell on)

 A brand new O'Neill surfy bag with tags £1

So very Cath dont you think ?

Hi again
Hope you are all having a good week. I am, it was my birthday on Monday.

Not the best day of the week to have one but we had a good weekend to start it off. On the Saturday we went for a meal at a lovely country pub - The First and Last Bistro in a small village near here called Ermington.
I love it there and it was even better as I won a voucher for £45 at our dentist so we only had to pay for the wine !
You would love it, it has a huge inglenook fireplace and fabric hearts and chickens hanging up and pots of spring flowers in the porch.
It was too busy to take photos inside (or I was too shy) and I have no flash on my phone so couldn't take one outside either.

Anyway on Sunday we went to Wembury beach. Miss V even went in the sea with no wetsuit on. Mr V and I tried to paddle but it was sooooooo cold in there.

On the Monday we went to Ashburton for a coffee and look around the shops but I had to get back for work and all the shops were still closed. Never mind.

Anyway back to the Cath like find

An unused vintage toiletries travel case - isnt it lovely
find it here http://shop.ebay.co.uk/Stirfry148/m.html?_dmd=1&_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1 if you want it !
Oh no I have run out of time. need to get changed for work.

Back later hopefully with a giveaway
