Wall pocket

Do you have posts from yonks ago just sitting in your post drafts, or are you spontaneous and post as you go? Here is one I prepared earlier. Ha!

Isn't this gorgeous? I picked it up a few months ago at a local Op Shop. It's pottery and although a little tatty, some of the flowers are chipped, it is so pretty. It is signed on the back but unfortunately I can't make it out. It is hanging on my kitchen wall.

If you go down to the woods today....

I love Typo! I couldn't resist these cute cases; one for me (bear), one for India (cat) and one from the discount bin (raccoon). They are only $9.95 - the raccoon was priced at $1.00 as it is missing the zipper pull which is an easy peasy fix. They are the perfect size to pop in a little money and a phone ready for a quick jaunt to the shops.

Enjoy the rest of the week and the weekend! xx

p.s. thanks for your support of our village heritage petition :)

Save our Heritage Buildings - Bungendore

Our local council have earmarked two heritage homes on the main thoroughfare through town to be removed or demolished. In their place they propose to build a new supermarket and carpark (we already have one supermarket that is in the planning stages of an extension).

The village of Bungendore is a 15 minute drive away from the nearest regional centre where there are three major supermarkets. Drive a little further (30 minutes in total) and you will find yourself in the Australian Capital, Canberra.

The local community have started a petition to try and save our heritage buildings:
