Portobello Recollection

There's a brick wall in Notting Hill near Portobello Road Market that I would rather look at for hours than go to Madame Tussaud's and it's totally free and full of History!

Mums last day here in London today so we took a trip to Portobello Rd Market. Love this place as it is full of antiques and vintage stuff that I love. Shaki had to drag me away from all the old Camera's and I in turn kept her away from the jewellery (Didn't work) ... unfortunately No one kept an eye on my Mum who will need another suitcase at this rate to go home with!

On the Upside ... we found the perfect shop that does all the Venetian Masquerade stuff ... we bought 130 ... YES 130 Venetian Masquerade Masks for our Civil Partnership to use as wedding favours!. We will go back next week to look at full and half masks for the actual wedding outfits ... is it too early to get excited?

A lovely day ;-) xx
