the Christmas market looks good fun, if crowded! Love the gorgeous owls. Helen #1
ReplyDeleteLove Stratford on Avon used to go there in my school days as I was at boarding school in Wolverhampton and a treat was going to the theatre there. Remember going to my first play and I was mesmerized. Love the owls I always wonder how they feel when I see them at fairs etc.
ReplyDeleteHappy WOYWW. We used to live within reasonable driving distance of Stratford (just outside Chipping Norton) and visited regularly, and when I lived in the Midlands I used to go to a fantastic shoe shop in the town that specialised in Italian shoes/boots. Still have a pair of long boots that I bought (probably in 2001) - such soft leather. Haven't been to any Christmas markets this year, although there have been many. I am helping at a Christmas fair on Saturday, but a small event in a village hall. I love owls too, and my mum has an owl number plate on her car! Ali x #15
ReplyDeleteI'm not that far from Stratford but have not been for years!
ReplyDeleteNot been to any Christmas Markets, a couple of simple craft fairs. DH and I had thought if visiting the German Market in B.ham but someone said it wasn't very good. That and rain put us off. Anne X 17
WOW! What a lot of content in your post today, Lilian. The market looks great, despite being busy - I hope you enjoyed your day. Those owls were just adorable. It's over 25 years since I've been to Stratford on Avon, but I recall it's quite pretty.
ReplyDeleteFab desk too, hope you are winning with those Christmas cards - quick before it's too late!
Lovely make today and wishing you luck with your chosen challenges
Happy WOYWW

Hi Lillian, I too live not far from Stratford, but not been to the market this year, not up to all that yet, lol. The whole town is lovely with all the old buildings, and even more so at this time of year. Have a lovely week, Hugs, Shaz #3 X
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos and I love the owls especially. Great desk and well done for completing all those cards. Happy WOYWW. With love & God Bless, Caro x (#11)
ReplyDeleteHi Lillian, I've visited Stratford when I use to live that way, but never went to the market.
ReplyDeleteThe owls are lovely. Not sure if it is still there, but there was a bird of prey place in Morton-on-Marsh.
Thanks for stopping by my blog.
Happy WOYWW
