Good thinking! by happypat

Good thinking!

One of the very nice soft furnishing/ gift shops in Longridge.
Good advice I think!

Thank you all so much for your lovely comments & faves on my last three days of the landscape challenge. All very much appreciated & I enjoyed the challenge very much.

Three good things:
1. I decided to ditch the last books on my kindle & go for a light chick lit novel for a change!
2. Sent off the large cheque for both car insurances.
3. A tax rebate in the post....this should have been number one...it pays for the insurance so easy come easy go!
A gorgeous place to visit Pat -- I love to potter around in such shops nd usually find it difficult to resist spending - have to reprimand and tell myself I do not need it !!

I can certainly support that thought! I think the world needs to stop and have a cup of tea. Such a lovely shop.
Good timing with a check coming in as a check goes out. ☺

@beryl @peggysirk I could have spent loads in here but didn't. In the back part there were some beautuful curtain materials & wallpapers.....I could have redecorated my entire house! Thank you both.

A very charming shop!

Looks interesting and I know it's not,but that could be a cat or doggy bed under the table!
February 11th, 2015  
I agree.

@quietpurplehaze yes well could be Hazel but it was actually a basket full of mohair type throws....looked itchy to me!

@cejaanderson Thanks Jane, it is indeed!

Lovely looking shop Pat, and I agree with that statement ..

I like these shops but always spend too much. I love plain white china.

Oh how lovely! I shall try and find that sign for my peace loving, tea loving friend. I've read the book 'Three cups of tea' by Greg Mortenson which explains that the Afghan villagers solve their problems over tea - ironic for a country that has suffered so much violence.

@judithg Well tea can solve everything....if only that were true! Longridge has a few of these little shops Judith....Lydia used to work in one of them. Such lovely things to transform your house these days!

This looks like a great shop with some great things in. Nice sign.

I love shops like these. Always find things there of which I didn't know I needed them.

Reminds me of when we were in Turkey - every shop called to you to come and have tea - mostly apple tea. We just about bought a turkish rug - just about - over tea!
February 11th, 2015  
Definitely. Great shot, lovely shop and very inviting
February 11th, 2015  
@maggiemae I would love a Turkish rug.......one of the things I love is those lovely textured rugs!

@lucypics Thanks Lucy....nothing I like better than having a browse!

Sorry for the group reply but Wolf Hall has just started! Thank you all for your comments!

Like all the rustic charm
February 11th, 2015  
I love the sign! Great looking shop!
February 11th, 2015  
I'd love to have a browse in there. Love the sign too.

... and there isn't any war when the clock strikes four,
everyone stops for tea." Your shot reminds me of that great old song.
February 11th, 2015  
Lovely photo and so agree about tea. It's such a comforting solution to lots of things.
Great no 3 given no 2!
February 11th, 2015  
I need that sign for my daughter and son-in-law
February 11th, 2015  
A fabulous piece of advice
February 12th, 2015  
Lovely shot.
February 12th, 2015  
My sort of shop Pat but luckily I have a strict friend who tries her best to control my spending!!
February 12th, 2015  
What a lovely shop! Some very nice things to look at and buy ... and very nicely captured!
February 12th, 2015  
That sounds like a great idea. Fascinating shop
February 12th, 2015  
I think all politicians should have that sign on the wall.
February 12th, 2015  
'Make tea not war' hahaha. I must remember that saying.
February 13th, 2015  
Love it!!!
