look where we stopped on the way...

too our beloved cornwall...
down the quaint passage way...

some of you may recognise this....
this is moi outside the new home of 'the vintage magpie'....
pay nicky a visit @ http://www.nickythevintagemagpie.co.uk


taking a peek in the dear little window...
& who did i find?...




'homeless bear'...



this dear little cat...




'olive' the bunny...



& this dear little chap,who tugged at my heart strings...




these wonderful creations are the work of nicky at 'the vintage magpie'..
who a lot of you already know...as we were passing i thought we would stop by as it is so nice to be able to picture places & people in your mind,unfortunatly nicky wasnt at her new studio but it was still a great start to my holiday...so now nicky i can picture you at your work table busy sewing away & making these little darlings...


i thought you might like to see a little more of 'chudleigh'...

i just loved this bunting that greeted us...



chudleigh high street...





i just loved this sign,anything with a nautical theme...




looking through this lovely old stone archway to the blue skies above...






chudleigh church,you even know what time we were there...




the church door was beautiful,so much detail...

well hello my lovelies,i am home from our wonderful weeks holiday in our much loved cornwall,a bit browner & heavier i might add!!....we go too cornwall three times a year as we love it so much & have been going for about 13 years now...this time we stayed on the roseland peninsula in a lovely little cottage which started life as a hen house...it has the most stunning views,you step out onto the lane & can walk down onto the beach in a couple of minutes which is ideal,especially for oscar whos little legs cant get him there quick enough!!..we had lovely weather so i have come home looking a lot healthier,mr h dosent look a lot different as he dosent tan easily,bless him!!..we ate lots & drank lots...lots of clotted cream,cornish butter & drank lots of cornish ale 'doombar' a must to any of you who visit cornwall...i have so much to tell you & so many photos to show you...i wont bore you with the full three hundred of them!!...but i thought i would start today with our journey....



this is his lordship in his fluffy nest on the way down,not looking impressed as he hates going the car,every time you stop he hopes desperatly that its time to get out...this little man is very tired...but had so much fun & he met his cornish girlfriend,pictures i will show you in another blog....hopefully see you tomorrow with pics of WONDERFUL cornwall,in between doing the huge pile of glorious ironing.... getting in position now ready for the new series of 'doc martin' 9.00pm itv,we went there too!!.....

  1. Hi Heidi, Oh my gosh... I can't believe you took the time to come and see the studio, I wish I could have been there to meet you! I hope you had a wonderful holiday in Cornwall, and next time you come down the studio will be stocked and I shall put the kettle on!!
