Best of British.... by judithg

Best of British....

Taken from the inside of Cambridge Contemporary Crafts which has some lovely things of an affordable nature (compared with Cambridge Contemporary Arts which has gorgeous things you have to save up for). I found a tea cup necklace in there for my tea-loving friend's birthday. It really suits her - I am quite jealous! A cheat shot as taken from the inside the writing was back to front. I may not comment much as I slept not a wink last night as my mind played out every possible connotation of Rachel's A'level results. She slept like a log and exceeded requirements for her course by some considerable way - I knew that -but just not at 3am. Normal service will be resumed soon!
That's a really cute display. I'd love to see a photo of that teacup necklace as well ;). Wow, Rachel is doing greats in all fields at the moment, isn't she? Congratulations to her!

Lovely shot of what sounds like a delightful shop! Congrats to Rachel for her excellent results! Get a good night's sleep, mom!

Love the framing within frame. Congrats to Rachel. She's done you proud once again!

congratulations to Rachel for getting great grades. My niece got her grades for Bristol Uni, so so far, so good all round! I hope you get a good night's sleep (after a celebratory glass of wine or two perhaps?). I'll be the same next week, waiting for Ed's GCSE results...

Nice window shot - I must look out for the shop. Well done to Rachel and sweet dreams!
August 16th, 2012  
Yay Rachel! And yay Judith - it's what moms do - lose sleep and worry!

Nice quaint little shop sign! Good for Rachel! Now get some sleep!
August 16th, 2012  
That looks like the kind of place I'd like to browse through.

well done to Rachel! - my turn for the sleepless night next week for GCSEs! Do you have a photo of the cupcake neacklace, I can't picture it!
August 16th, 2012  
@lauralatham No I'll get one - it's a little flat china tea cup.
August 16th, 2012  
@judithg oh, just re read what you said - my mind was on food - you wrote tea cup and I read cup cake!!!
August 16th, 2012  
The framing works really well. Love the nostalgic tones.
Ah exam results... I remember those. ;)
August 16th, 2012  
Lovely capture and it looks like it would be a lovely place to shop.
August 16th, 2012  
It's a cute sign! I would've been attracted to it. Great framing, and a lovely shot!
August 17th, 2012  
Great shot Judith. Love the colours and text. Is it really the best of british??
August 17th, 2012  
Quite understand - its quite a relief when they grow up and stop taking exams!! Nice shot and background text, must go and have a look next time am in the town.

Well done Rachel I was also having a restless night wondering if Beth would get the required grades for Bristol, I see Helen has mentioned that she had. btw I like the picture of the shop it looks like one I would love to look round
August 17th, 2012  
Congrats to Rachel and her parents! I guess we will have some students after all. Shame.
August 17th, 2012  
I love this. What a fab shot. Congratulations to your daughter on her results. I have all the fun of GCSE results coming out next week xx

When you are a mom it never changes. School, jobs, girlfriends/boyfriends, something always keeps us thinking in the night. My 30 year old son is sailing our boat to Maine for three weeks with a friend and his girlfriend. I can't stop thinking about it, yet, my husband and I did it most every summer for years in our late 20's and 30's. If they could invent a ;ill to help mom's not worry I'd buy them out.
August 19th, 2012  
Congrats, Rachel! This is fun! I love the colors!
August 19th, 2012  
Congrats to Rachel! I understand the Mum worries all too well, and my mum assures me that it never stops!!!!! Lovely shot!
August 19th, 2012  
@sailingmusic And my mum says grandchildren are just extras to lose sleep over!! I'm so glad mine don't climb mountains - going on on their bikes is bad enough!
August 19th, 2012  
Was just thinking about Lydia's results due this morning & realised I hadn't heard how Rachel had done. so pleased for her..& you.. such a relief after all that hard work!! Congratulations to her & on to the next step! Jack did alright too but he has another year yet as he changed subjects. Love the window!
