Bits and bobs

This post is quite randon - there are lots of interesting shapes and patterns all over Mummy's house - she got this lamp from Venice or Italy or somewhere (it's all blown glass) and I love the stripey vase - it does something to you eyes though!

A little heart

This little heart is on a little pillow on Mum's bed, it looks like one of those ones which might hold poupurri (however you spell that!) I love how this photo almost looks like it is in black and white-and I love the shadows on it :)I dont know why I love hearts so much, probably what they symbolize, and I would love to make this photo pink and white - hearts should always be pink!

Down the stairs

It's been way too long since I had my camera out - in fact it was probably getting dusty. I'm all done with lectures now and so came home for the weekend. The weather was lovely and i put off going and taking photos until the evening, so had to make do with some new ones of out and around the house. Mummy has a lovely house, mainly creams and beiges, but the house itself is quite old fashioned, and I do love the stairs which spiral down the centre of the house - so I took this photo.

St Pauls in a good light!

My youth hostel was right by the Cathedral, and every time I have ever been to St Pauls, it is always a bit grey and cloudy, so I was finally pleased to get some great light to take some good photos! The sun was really shining by the time the wedding was finished! Wish I had time for more photos!

At the Dorchester

The Dorchester is a very prominent Picadilly hotel in London, and as a result of it being the Royal Wedding, they were giving away free ice cream! How nice! It was really yummy ice cream too! We stopped and had some and also took some photos of the beautiful flowers outside! I loved the cute shaped trees, and the vibrant flowers! They were great!

Animals at War Memorial

On our walk from Hyde Park, we had to go all the way to Green Park, because they had to close quite a few other tube stations, and we went via this memorial. I think it's a really lovely idea, and animals go to war with no choice, and many do not survive. This was far more common in the olden days, but still lovely and fitting, and there are always lots of poppy wreaths there.

Royal Wedding - 140,000 people

On Friday, I got up at 6am to make my way to Hyde Park for 7am to sit with 140,000 other Londoners and watch the Royal Wedding - it was an awesome atmosphere - flags, confetti, and big screens, the National Anthem, hymns and news crews! I made it on several news stations again, mainly for eating breakfast in the park at 7am! (strawberries and cream!) There were so many people there it was unbelievable!
