I'm not sure there are any pics of my first mini's - even though my first home made dollhouse with every stick of furniture made from matchboxes won first prize at the Brownies competition. We shifted house every couple of years and a lot of our toys were never seen again!<br />MercedesMercedes Spencer @ Liberty Bibertyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03644844163189671419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-235889128352131983.post-29022629517813849722009-04-22T16:40:00.000+01:002009-04-22T16:40:00.000+01:00Hi Rosanna

We were not very far from Halesowen at all and used to go out there often.<br /><br />It sounds like you got to see some of the best sights in the area which is wonderful. So many people only visit London which is a shame as there is so much more to see.<br /><br />I do love the UK and although I am settled here now, and will undoubtedly move around the world some more, one day perhaps I'll move back.Tallulah Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14490186975270835647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-235889128352131983.post-87088999593623988552009-04-18T19:00:00.000+01:002009-04-18T19:00:00.000+01:00Hi Jayne, are you from Birmingham?

We travelled extensively during the whole period. I've been to Stratford and Warwick Castle as well as Coventry, Worcester and many other places whose names I forgot. I've only been there once after it but memories are still so strong. I loved going at strawberries and raspberries picking and dining in little pubs.<br />I really wish Matteo to see the same things and smell the same atmosphere. I love my country and Genoa foremost but the second place where I could live is UK. And I'm not saying that because you're British ;o))<br />Have a nice weekendrosannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07760301976359983285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-235889128352131983.post-30311513462280028782009-04-18T16:56:00.000+01:002009-04-18T16:56:00.000+01:00Thanks Debbie.....I can never have too many pictur...Thanks Debbie.....I can never have too many pictures :-)Tallulah Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14490186975270835647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-235889128352131983.post-26608891608729230332009-04-18T09:09:00.000+01:002009-04-18T09:09:00.000+01:00I love the little Acorn Cottage and so glad that i...I love the little Acorn Cottage and so glad that it went to a good home.<br />The Foxgloves are growing away here Jayne, so I'll get some more photographs for you for your reference Library.Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05868240147335139452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-235889128352131983.post-15434351332955764622009-04-18T00:53:00.000+01:002009-04-18T00:53:00.000+01:00Well hello my friend from Scotland...were your ear...Well hello my friend from Scotland...were your ears burning with me talking about you :-)<br /><br />Thanks so much for posting a comment.

I know Acorn cottage went to a good home and it now lives in a B & B so lots of people get to enjoy it. Here it would be stuck in a box somewhere.<br /><br />Thanks Rosanna...hope you are feeling a little better now.<br /><br />Jean, my Nan was wonderful...full of stories and tall tales. My Granddad was as well but his tales were more swashbuckling and adventurous.

The flower arrangement is actually even better in real life than in the photographs and the cottage is commented on almost daily.Lexiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03308458123244754985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-235889128352131983.post-37949047781992449032009-04-17T20:40:00.000+01:002009-04-17T20:40:00.000+01:00Oh my goodness, of course I couldn't tell!

How wonderful to have a Nan who believed in fairies! The first flowers I made were with a bread and glue mix, they quickly crumbled into dust.
