Hello - I am back from my trip to the seaside. We stayed in lovely Skipsea but took a trip up to Filey on Monday. The above pictures are of the stunning views from Filey Brigg. It was a cold crisp but sunny day, just what I needed to blow away the winter cobwebs! We spent all our days away visting the area and one evening in the pub. We played scrabble on the other two evenings - I haven't played for years and I really enjoyed it. Copious amounts of food & wine were consumed. I'm glad to report that I had a lovely time AND the house is just how I left it. The neighbours didn't get disturbed by partying teens and I haven't been eaten out of house and home. What a relief!
I bought an handmade chocolate egg for myself (how indulgent) from a lovely little old chocolate shop in Filey and also managed a bit of thrifting!
A pattern drafting book for 50p (just what I needed too), a cute little Quality Street tin and a glass bon bon dish.
I am planning on filling this with chocolate eggs! More chocolate and I'm supposed to be on a diet....
Sounds like you had a wonderful holiday - I love those cobweb removing bracing walks. Great thrifting too - I have that Natalie Bray book but I had to pay £2.50 for it, that's inflated London prices for you!

I just love the pictures, put that on our list of places to visit when I come over.
I also love all of your cool finds. I have never been thrifting, but I think I would like it!
