I decided to tackle the gardening this week only to discover that a dastardly fiend ( for want of a better word ! ) has stolen my pigs ........ not real pigs but my gorgeous life sized ornamental saddle backs that were a gift from my daughter some 12 years ago, the happy piggy family lived in the garden for years in a very secluded little nook, they have been snowed on rained on and climbed on by my children and latterly my little grandaughter, I am heartbroken. On searching the Internet to try and find a replacement I discovered that the exact same pigs had been stolen from a family garden in Blackpool, many miles from us but I am now wondering if there is porky conspiracy out there ?
Apart from gardening and sobbing over missing piggy's work this week has been brilliant, I have gone all summery and added some fab garden furniture to the website which I couldn't resist in my gardening madness, We have had the most wonderful customers through the door as always with fabulous stories from one lady rushing to buy last minute furniture for a photo shoot taking place the same afternoon ! she is to be featured on an episode of *Locate to the country*.
Another who had had a mad fit an thrown half of her house contents away having been inspired by a magazine article and decided to go Parisienne Chic.
But the best has to be the lady that resides in Saudi Arabia determined to carry various Venetian mirror items in her hand luggage !
It is one of the joys of this little shop, the people and the stories, no two days are ever the same and no day is ever boring.
