it is because we have stopped noticing
the good things that appear in our lives.'

Visiting a friend in Banbury and other adventures along the way...

Bonjour fellow bloggers and readers!

My most recent Easter holiday adventure was the visit I made to an old University friend's place in Banbury near Oxford....We had a good catch up, walked, drank lots of cups of tea and I started to learn to crochet!


We walked past some beautiful churches along the way....





 She made us feel very at home...and even tucked sume Easter bunnies in for us!

 One of our adventures included visiting Shakespeare's famous place of birth, Stratford Upon Avon....
 Fudge...yum!



These tea places looked amazing....

 and the canal was also very pretty....







We were even given a show of their cool car....
I was too scared to try it though, but my boyfriend had a go!

So many more stories to tell through my pictures but running out of time...

My friend Hanna was also kind enough to make me a bath scrub for my birthday... if you want to find out more about her inspirational life as an artist and find out how she made her fennel seed and sugar bath scrub check out her blog:


or if you want her to make you some of her amazingly colourful crochet work.....

Thank you to Hanna for having us!   Au revoir! xxxx
