Busy day

So after I finished dusting bookcases I decided to take this photo.

Lovely selection of Churchill books and I love the 'Wallie Dogs' as we call them here. Don't ask me why!

I wasn’t familiar with Wallee dogs so looked it up, here’s just a bit from Wikipedia…


Victoria with her spaniel Dash, 1833, painting by George Hayter
"Wally dugs" (china dogs) have been mentioned in Scottish poetry, including "The Queen of Sheba" by Kathleen Jamie[7][17] and in a poem describing life in a Glasgow tenement. There is a longer poem also quoted. 🐶🐶

Great collection- both in books and knick-knacks. I love the Churchill figure! My grandmother used to have a pair of the Wallee dogs but I'm not sure who inherited them. I'm sure they're still in the family somewhere. Nice vignette!
