A Victorian Conversation by maggiemae

A Victorian Conversation

These two made a great couple even if they were not together. Its the start of the annual Victorian Heritage Celebrations and inside the Opera House there was tea and an amazing spread for everybody who came! Pinwheel and club sandwiches, tiny pancakes with salmon and cream cheese, huge cheese plates with salami, ham, smoked salmon, several cheeses, grapes etc! So generous.
Looks good on Black as @seattlite comments, thank you!


Three Good Things:
1. I was asked to take photos as the proper photographer had pulled out. I will but not with all t
he huge number of events.
2. Didn't need tea tonight.
3. Our electricians came to install the box for the floor heating in the bathroom and called John, Sir all the time and me, Ma'am!
How vintage. Great spotting and shot, Maggiemae!

@maggiemae I don’t blame you. It’s not worth it for you and your camera to get wet.

@bankmann Some men were extremely stylish, others were tramps and chimney sweeps, Mr B

@lynnz Thanks Lyn but I really don't think the "the" is justified! More like "a"!
