A Vintage Patina

Hello there. I trust this week is treating you well? Listen to me - you can blame series 3 of Downton Abbey for that rather toffee-nosed language.
 
Talking of vintagey-style things, we visited the Imperial War Museum in Waterloo on Saturday and I took a few snaps. (Sorry I didn't get to post them on the Facebook page yesterday - I was floored by another migraine).

Amelia tries out the Anderson shelter. "No - I think I prefer my own bed..." There's a surprise...
 
Although that chair looks comfy!
 
Let's see what's on the radio...
 
Make ourselves a nice cuppa 
 
...and have a little slice of pie. Apple? Rhubarb? Blackcurrant?
 
Lovely! Oh and I've been designing a little bit of packaging for the new magnets, which will be popping into the shop within the next couple of weeks:
 
Hoping you're warm and well-fed this week!

Mystery At Banteay Srei



Mystery At Banteay Srei - acrylic on canvas 5 x 7
 
 
It has taken this long for inspiration to form into an actual painting, since visiting Cambodia in 2010. I feel the chill of Autumn nipping at my fingers and toes and dream of being back in the searing heat with the shrill and constant sound of crickets in the trees all around us.
