Books galore!

I popped in to Garstang this afternoon. Market day & of course good old Dereks book stall has got bigger & bigger!
Jack has been helping us out a few boxes up in the loft. There are some things that no matter if you don’t want them anymore you are obliged to keep.
Remember all those black & white family photos on the wall at the farm, they are all up there, no room on the walls here but have to keep them!

Three good things:
1. The blinds are up!! No skulking behind a screen now!
2. Two Danish pastries with custard in them!
3. The very plant I was looking for, a Japanese anemone arrived today as a house warming gift…thank you Ruth.
Lots of books to choose from there.. Yes you can't chuck out photos..
Love Japanese anemones.. I never have any luck with them.. so hope yours thrives..

@julzmaioro @cutekitty Here’s hoping they do well, there are lots looking amazing round here so hopefully they like our soil!

Scan those photos and now they are digital and take up no physical space.

You have to have a big space for Japanese anemones, they spread everywhere! I've lost my pink one and I'm hoping to get one from a friend. I do love them at this time of year.

Books and crosswords who could ask for more. Did you buy any books?

This looks like a fun place to visit!

Your new rooms would look so good with the blinds down - makes the space so personal! It takes a year or two for Japanese Anenomes to spread. I think they appreciate a bit of watering to start them off!

@onewing No Babs, I have just got rid of two large boxes! No room now so I have just kept my favourites. I do all my reading on kindle or the library these days!

@phil_howcroft Thanks Phil. A quick shot as lately I have forgotten to take any photos while out, just remembered in time before I went to the car.

So they set this up every month for a few market days then pack it all up till next month?! Oh my! I love your 3 things. I cannot throw away old photographs either.

@louannwarren It’s on every Thursday Lou Ann. They go other places the rest of the week, sometimes it won’t be worth unpacking their stuff if it’s a wet day & no one about.

Plenty of choice in books there

It's a long time since I've visited Garstang on a market day - I'll put it on my list!
September 17th, 2021  
I went to Garstang once. I know I bought something too, but for the life of me I can't remember what it was!
September 18th, 2021  
@dkbarnett Really how amazing you have been to not so big Garstang! I might have passed you in the street Delwyn!!

Lovely photo and great work by Jack putting your pictures in the loft. Such a wonderful display of your family. Definitely good to keep.
