And yes, Rupert Brooke. I was reading it last night and getting a whole insight into his writing (gosh, but he was a bright boy). From the photo of him as a young man inside the cover, you can see the little boy still in his face - on the cusp of manhood . . .Bovey Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117332471600275100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-16726243362939650172009-12-06T13:30:34.369-08:002009-12-06T13:30:34.369-08:00Is the green book Rupert Brooke?

I can start one on an evening and finish it by the next and I wouldn't say I was a particularly fast knitter either.<br /><br />I thought exactly the same about the pattern on the blue and white jug. I'm still waiting for my dear husband to hang 4 for me, but he's been trying to finish off a cupboard door on a big Victorian cupboard/glazed top pitch pine book case which is going into auction early in 2010.<br /><br />The Open Road is poetry, and has some wonderful ones in it including quite a few by William Barnes, the Dorset dialect poet. I will type up one or two in the days to come.<br /><br />Kath - I agree with you. My eyes fair lit up when I saw the nice old (dented!) china and the boxes of books on this particular stall . . .Bovey Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117332471600275100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-84727806338820478922009-12-06T07:47:28.970-08:002009-12-06T07:47:28.970-08:00I'd love some old books in my stocking! not sh...I'd love some old books in my stocking! not shiny, stiff ones that smell chemically.

Its no good providing a "cat basket"--as a rule they decide where they want to sleep and that's the way it will be.<br />Wouldn't the pattern of that blue and white jug make a lovely quilt fabric? <br />"The Open Road" is a wonderful book title--one that would lure me into its pages.<br />How have you found time to knit warm fuzzy hats with all else you've been doing? Surely you're a bit of a wonder woman?Morning's Minionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01912356455981434029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-4041949831867965082009-12-06T07:15:44.189-08:002009-12-06T07:15:44.189-08:00Old jugs have such character ... if only they coul...Old jugs have such character ... if only they could talkAngiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12177505346903016669noreply@blogger.com
