Well, I am quite amazed I am still standing. I do not know HOW I managed today, truly! I was too hot in bed last night, and although I went to bed at 9, setting my alarm for 4.30., I was STILL AWAKE at 3 a.m. and going doolally. I reset the alarm for 5 a.m. I must have drifted off to the cats purring on the other side of the bed, but at 4.20 - I woke for the loo. That was it for the night. I did try to get five more minutes sleep, but no. I was on the road for 5.35, but when I got to Erwood (10 miles away) my tummy did NOT feel good. I also couldn't spot my bum bag. Blardy thing! I thought I must have left it on the table, so turned round and came home (just as well, with the tummy event that followed). Bum bag NOT on table. Checked car and it had fallen down the side of the seat onto the step . . . Put Spotify on and listened to Dan Snow's history podcasts on the way to Malvern. I made good time, but then the blardy British Camp route into Malvern was STILL shut (this has to be about 8 months now) as there had been another landslip just after they finally fixed the first. So it was the long way round to the Fleamarket via the Eastnor Castle road and across the commons.
A miscellany of mostly modern quilts with a dealer friend of mine.
I loved this, but it was £100+.
A really lovely old quilt, but at £150 it wasn't coming home with me.
Little half-square triangles set off with the red at the cross-overs.
My goodness though, but it was HOT. Something like 33 deg. FAR too hot for me - I normally hide inside when it's a heatwave - but I had to work, and so dragged my rather heavy full-of-wooden-things trolley round behind me. The grass gives it drag and it's a PITA. I found some unusual - hopefully sellable - things.
Wasn't this a sweet embroidery? On a stand, so rather like a fire screen to stop the heat of the fire drying your complexion!
Oh, I had an interesting business proposition too. One which I think I shall at least try. A good friend of mine, putting business my way, bless him.
Oh, and the brain being slightly lacking today, I left the interesting bit of my ham rolls at home in the fridge (slices of tomato, and some coleslaw). But then, I wasn't the least bit hungry. Didn't have an evening meal last night (but had too many strawberries instead). I've eaten since I got home, a proper meal. Just finished a cold Hazy Jane IPA too.
Back in the morning, as I know I am going to be going to bed early tonight.
