No worries, Dawn. I did pop over just to check I hadn’t missed you, as you are such a loyal contributor. But no pressure. Honestly 🙂 🙂

It’s Sunday and today’s theme is the title of one of my favorite movies, with Bruce Willis and a plethora of stars including Helen Mirren. 🙂 Of course my photo has nothing to do with that.

Same happens in Germany except that the old telephone boxes are pink/grey or if they are very old yellow. But if I had a choice I’d prefer a BLUE police box as an open library, you know, I’m thinking of a particular one, bigger on the inside …

Festive classic tea, hey? And a Barbara Erskine book I’d like to read 🙂 🙂

Yes I thought it was a shame people had left other bits behind. Looks as though a parent thought it a good place to leave leftover drinks. The Aptamil is a particularly strange thing to leave behind! I’ve never read any Barbara Erskine but the location of that one certainly sounds appealing.
