I should get out more.
Eats,sleeps and rides a bike.
On Thursday I go to the local auction- it an addiction.
Having had a bobble hat blown off my head and lost forever I stumbled across this little beauty at £6.50.
40% possum. It’s toasty warm. And super lightweight.

I didn’t see the marquetry. There was a pair of lovely embroidered pictures. Which generally I dislike. They only made £50. I missed them.

This Hockney print was sold yesterday at Mitchell’s for £16k number 85/250
Nice work if you can get it.

We think so. Same artist had about 6 pics in the auction but this one took our fancy and our favourite but the others weren’t too shabby.

I had a bid on the similar but much smaller one but happy not to buy it- I thought it might hang nicely next to the one I bought. Hey ho.
