Tuesday 3rd September had me very excited. I was taking a boat trip up the river and heading to the former Summer home of a literary heroine of mine. This is me saying hello in the cafe where we had coffee before we began our tour of the house.
My son took it, by the way! I edited it a tad but he took it.
Another interesting house visit, Greenway House, Devon? More pictures please especially of the interior! Love the way the lady is looking at the poster.
Oh, how very exciting. My best friend is a big fan of Agatha and we went to see the Mousetrap together, many years ago, in London. I used to love her books as a teenager - couldn't get enough of them - Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple. Not sure I'd like them today - I'm much more a fan of historical novels these days. But she was an amazing lady!
Reading the above comments I am sure that Agatha could create quite an interesting story around Lady Casablanca. I am already imagining her character full of mystery and intrigue.
Nice to see you happy with your fav. literary herione. I don't blame you to have her as your herione, she wrote fantastic and exciting stories. Well done to your son for this shot.
When I saw this picture pop up it made me smile. Years ago I bought a copy of Agatha Christie's book An Autobiography. I was having a bit of a cull of my books a few weeks ago (not a huge cull though) and noticed that my copy of her biography was very much worse for wear with loose pages etc. I decided to look on one of my favourite second-hand books websites World of Books Australia and saw a copy of the book in much better condition than my copy. I ordered it and this afternoon when we got home from our walk the book was in our letterbox. Can't wait to reread it.
Your son took a good shot, definitel a fav for his efforts! I love to go back occasiobally and read the novels of authors that I first came across when I was a teenager, and I really enjoy Agatha Christie novels.
@randystreat just a slight straightening and crop plus a little brilliance and contrast. Nothing major. My lad did well. I set myself up and asked him to take it.
I love how you are both looking up
