Four Lions
"It's life, isn't it? It's just life. What is that? It's nothing... It's like being stuck in the queue at Alton Towers... You want to be on the rides, don't you? You want to be on Nemesis, Oblivion... Rubber Dinghy Rapids."

Midi Skirts 4 Life
Once again I paid a little trip to Knowle's charity shops. I found myself some winning skirts in Age Concern, just £2.99 each. BARGAIN.
Dreamy...

Floral Camouflage
 |
| Can ya see it yet? |
I bought this tote bag today, apparently it's made out of curtains. But haven't I seen this print before?! Why yes, a vintage Miss Selfridge top I found in another chazzer last summer. What are the chances?

Favourites with a story...
 |
| Both from Motel, a vintage top... originally thought to be a scarf until I found the head and arm holes. And a tiny vintage red satchel, found whilst sorting through the sale bags. Absolute treats. |
Boardwalk Empire Intro...

| As far as I got... until the Trojans got me! That'll learn me. |
What struck me was the uncanny likeness to Magritte's The Son of Man work. The now iconic motif of the dark sillouette of a bowler hat-wearing, suited and booted middle class gent is clearly an aesthetic influence even though it wouldn't have been executed until a good 30 years after the series is set. So why Magritte? I'll tell you once I actually get a chance to watch an episode. But it already intrigues me.

Country Pub

| Blissful |
One of the oldest pubs in the country, dating back to the 14th Century. It was even visited by Samuel Pepys!
Joy Orbison - The Shrew Would Have Cushioned The Blow
A migraine shat over all these plans. Not pleased.
