the flags were flying in Lyme last weekend......
.....for the jurassic fossil festival......
....but being a squirrel....
....i prefer the bank holiday monday festival...
....where all the fossils are replaced by
food and art!
...a huge tent sits right on the beach...
..the weather was spooky....
...bright beautiful sunshine inland...
...but a thick foggy mist out to sea!
..inside the tent are all sorts of lovely things to tempt...
(although sadly i'm allergic to seafood....
....but still thought these prawns looked amazing)
..i always head straight to my favourite stall..
...paula youens...
who not only produces the most wonderful artwork...
...but also has other interesting vintage items....
...a few little treats i squirrelled....
...i still had time for a bit of vintage thrifting in lyme...
....i loved this basket the best...
...a £2.50 bargain!..
..a sweet little book...
...and some embroidered hand towels...
...it was so lovely to have the 'extra' day of holiday...
...so to soften the blow of going back to work
i treated myself to this new Sarah Moore publication....
...it's just lovely and a must have
for your bookshelf!
....looking forward to some more bedtime reading tonight!
