There's been lots to smile about this week including
spending a week with my little sis who lives in Witney, Oxford.
A trip to Blenheim Palace to see the Giffords Circus show
The Painted Wagon.
We went to see our favourite band My Darling Clementine at Fat Lil's Club (love that name) in Witney on the first night.
These crazy sculptures are in the gardens of the library in Summertown
where I picked up this maxi skirt for £5 in my favourite
charity shop - Helen & Douglas House Hospice.
They have a full department devoted to vintage & retro.
Could have stayed forever in the Organic Gardens & Cafe at Cassington
We ended our week with a visit to Walsall to see lovely friends Vix & Jon and their fantastic home.
See you guys in August xx
Sorry about the blurry pics I can't get them to load from my phone to pc

Giffords Circus is brilliant isn't it? Monkeychild always enjoys her annual visit. Lovely maxi skirt, it was a great buy - perfect for summer (if we have a decent one!) xx
ReplyDeleteThat looks like the kind of holiday I would enjoy myself. Love those sculptures - certainly made me smile.

Good to hear you had a great time in Witney. And how lovely to have been able to catch up with Vix and Jon along the way. xxx
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you had a lovely time. Ooh! Your friends car looks fantastic. I had an Anglia in that colour but I can't make out what it is from the photo.
ReplyDeleteYou obviously enjoyed a super trip and acquired some great finds. The best chuckle ... those sculptures.

Blurry maybe, but lovely all the same! x Jo
ReplyDeleteGoodness, Lynn. What an amazing week you had. I was truly impressed with the amount of things you did and the places you went. Your photos didn't look blurry to me, just full of wonderful memories. Have a super Friday and weekend, too.
ReplyDeleteYou have been busy - stitching, shopping, gigging, circusing and spotting some cracking sites - maybe I need a pair of jeans to cover the naked mannequin's legs in our garden. I'll be scaring Postman Izzi! xxx
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a very nice week Lynn. You look fabulous in your maxi skirt :D xxx
ReplyDeleteToo kind my dear friend xx
DeleteHi Lynn,
ReplyDeleteThe garden sculptures are so funny and very clever! I love the photos of the flowers; so beautiful. I honestly don't think your photos are blurry at all - it's an artistic twist is all. Glad you were able to meet up with some friends and go see one of your favorite bands!
It's been ages since I've joined Friday Smiles, let alone do any posting. Still can't put my finger on why.....
I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
Hugs,
Kay
What a lot of fab things to look at. Love your maxi skirt!You look very good in it. What a find. (I was a charity shop queen when I lived in England. I love mooching around and I always found the most stunning outfits.)
ReplyDeleteThe sculptures are such fun, and the concert amazing. What a good week you've had.
I like the sweet peas in one of the photos and also your friend Vix's dress and the classic car behind them in the photo.
Thanks for visiting,
Have a good week,
Blessings,
Lisca
The sweet peas were in the most amazing organic gardens Lisca xx
DeleteHi Lynn, great post today. I have never been to Witney but I used to buy teddy bears from a company called Teddy Bears of Witney they had some famous Steiff bears there. It looks like you've had a busy week, thanks for sharing it with us. Have a great weekend, Angela xXx
ReplyDeleteI've been in that shop Angela, it's amazing xx
DeleteWitney? Is that the PM's constituency? I think it's rather an affluent area? I've never been down there I don't think. Bet it's beautiful. Sounds like you had a fab time. You look like a beautiful garden yourself in that frock, Lynn. This is a rare treat; two photos of you and a bonus pic of Vix and Jon! That organic cafe looks wonderful. I hope it smelled of sweet peas. That hospice shop sounds like it could be all of our favourite shop. Imagine if we descended en made! Xxx
ReplyDeleteEn masse!
DeleteWhat a lovely happy week you have had. So much to smile about. Whitney sounds a lovely place to be, especially when you have friends and family there. Kate x
ReplyDeleteOhh I love that retro H&D shop! Glad you had fun in my neck of the woods x
