Sun Good Times and Avington Brocante

Oh my goodness,  it seems ages since I wrote my blog, but the past week has been so busy full of everything that I love, sunshine, friends, great food and beautiful places to visit.

My little laptop has been laying there feeling so neglected, but then that’s what happens when you are enjoying yourself.

Wednesday saw us wending our way down to the South of England to stay with my very very best friend, lovely day spent with her grandchildren and Emma who has just opened this lovely shop in Bishops Waltham, if you are ever in the area give it a visit it is definitely worth it.

Thursday dawned to the most beautiful day and after breakfast in the garden we set off to Avington Court for the Brocante Fair, a superb location and with the sun it was idyllic. 

The stalls were well the only word to describe is beautiful full of everything that I love. 

 Betty and Violets stall absolute gorgeous

Hesta's stall such great finds

 Lizzie was there and loved this photo that I took of her outside her great stall full of French finds which she had brought back from a recent trip. 

Then off to Alresford for lunch and a walk around this lovely village and to the water meadows which is famous for its watercress. Such pretty houses and the Mill cottage which goes over the river

 Lovely clematis

Booked our holiday off to a part of France we have not visited before Biarritz
Cheap flight, lovely chambre d’hote can’t wait only 2 more weeks to go and guess what I have booked an empty suitcase to take with me!!! Hoping there will be lots of flea markets to visit.

Wednesday I have a Fair in Bideford, I was asked to do this one its an antique fair so not too sure whether my stall will fit in but was assured it would be fine, and the BBC are there filming Antique Road Trip!! Don’t think they will get any bargains from me!

Have a great week and hope the sunshine stays for a while (doubtful though!)
