Just one more day ....

Well, it's almost over but if I dwell upon that I'll end up very down. So, it's the new opportunities that the extra freedom will bring which I need to focus upon.
No danger of me turning into a domestic goddess which is sad for Paul but there we are. Lots more time for blogging and lots more news of Nostalgic Mix 4 to come soon. meanwhile, a big thank you to all blog followers, This'n'That customers, regular shop browsers, buyers and sellers at Nostalgic Mix.

Getting ready to take This'n'that on the road this year.



Only five more days left until the shop closes. I'm really sad and yet also looking forward to having time to be off out and about buying and selling. I've really enjoyed my time in the shop and will always remember it fondly but my real passion is retro/vintage and much as I enjoyed sourcing the brand new lines for the shop they were only there to help to cover the overheads.
So, freedom calls!
Have been taking a few photographs for the next Nostalgic Mix fair (March 31st) publicity. Not finished yet but looks as though green and yellow are emerging early this spring!
At the moment I am sorting bookings for Nm4 in March so do contact me if you are interested to know more.

One of my favourite artists!

Have you seen the recent coverage of David Hockney's new exhibition at the Royal Academy? Hope he will forgive me for pasting this pic into the blog to advertise it ... there's a great book too (cheapest on Amazon).
