Emotional

Just the most amazingly emotional experience today ...

We're going to a wedding at the end of the month and wanted something new to wear. We went into Bath and, as we were wandering around, noticed a pop-up art exhibition in New Bond Street. I was in there like a shot, as the shop's been empty for years and I'd never been in there. To my joy, the exhibition was spread over 3 floors - I flew up the stairs as fast as I could! Why? Because, many years ago, the shop was called Eileen's, a greengrocers, and my father was the manager. Not only did we live in the flat over the shop, I was born in the flat over the shop! We moved when I was a year, a month and a day old.

I took a few photos but I only had the compact with me (no viewfinder) so photos had to be taken at arm's length. I was so excited that I was shaking, so most of my photos aren't sharp. This was our sitting room - or so my sister tells me. Obviously, I don't remember...

I'm going to go back later on in the week.
