This is the sort of picture I would have been so envious of as a child! I would have imagined myself in it. In fact, I do have a chidhood memory of learning to skip backwards in order to do the maypole dance properly, but oddly, no memory of the actual dance!
This lovely painting was used for the shop's Christmas giveaway card in recent years Now, we have moved on and sell at vintage fairs from time to time. Otherwise, retirement as such, is filled with work on our recently purchased house in Brixham for the time being.
The Four Seasons Guest House, Bridgetown Totnes.
A brilliant place to stay in Totnes! It's just across the old bridge and so handy for shopping and evenings out. We stayed there for several nights during our recent house move It is run by such a kind, helpful couple, Laura and Paul. The breakfasts are second to none. Comfortable rooms ....... :)
Great places to stay worldwide!!
Take a look at airbnb. The link will take you to Maddy's entry for Totnes. (remember Maddy who helped me with This'n'That until we closed?) Then, just explore the rest of airbnb to see the worldwide opportunities.
Tangerine Tree, 50, High Street, Totnes
My regular haunt - great coffee, wonderful cakes, good company:)
I love it!
ReplyDeleteWe used to do maypole dancing at primary school! What fun! ;-)
I love that sort of illustration too. Who's the artist? :)
