Day Twenty Nine

Photo of the Day:



It turned into quite a nice day today, and this afternoon the sun cast pretty dappling shadows through the leaves.  The dogs enjoyed a walk this afternoon, as did we.


We had a pleasant morning walking around a Vintage Fair held at Ware Drill Hall. 


There was a good range of stalls, from glassware, jewellery, clothing, knick knacks and bits and bobs, china, woodwork and small furniture items.  There was even a really lovely antique Singer Sewing Machine that looked to be in immaculate condition, but I walked away, telling myself I don't really need any more as I am supposed to be downsizing my Vintage Singer Sewing Machine collection.






We had a pleasant cup of tea and cake in the 'vintage tea shop' that had been set up while we listened to some music.



 I saw a teapot I really liked which my husband kindly bought me, and on the same stall I also saw a lovely tea cup trio and the lady kindly discounted it and so that also came home with us.



The tea pot  is Burgess Ware and I think it dates to the 1930s.


This pretty trio is Tuscan Bone China, and looking at the stamp on the bottom, it dates from c1936. 


I will have my morning tea from this tomorrow along with the last slice of Christmas Cake!


(I have added my daily art piece to yesterday's post, and hopefully tomorrow I will add the rest to the previous posts that I have missed, and also today's post)
