Spying

When we were in Majorca for my son's wedding, last June, we did a spot of celebrity spotting.  Hugh Laurie, Tom Hiddleston and others, were lounging around on the jetty in Port de Soller, by two rather flash speed boats, in between shooting scenes for the John le Carre's 'The Night Manager', which starts on BBC television tomorrow evening.

 If you want to know what colour trousers Hugh Laurie wears between shots, I can let you in on the secret.
I rather like the trousers.  Not sure about the shoes though.

    Yes, I agree he can carry off the red trousers, but the shoes . . . do they have pompoms on? They look like slippers!
    I'm hoping to watch 'The Night Manager' tomorrow night . . . . . ooops! tonight! Now I must go to bed. *yawn*

      I think those red trousers have had an airing in the first episode!

In a vase on Monday - colour

The intense colours in my vase this week come from nasturtiums, sweetpeas and a single glorious zinnia! Their beauty and love of life speak for themselves and need no further words from me! Enjoy!

A simple vase on Monday

I have just one flower in my vase this week. A simple, pretty, wild narrow-leaved Michaelmas daisy. The vase is actually a black pottery cup. I wish I could remember where we bought it and who made it, but it is a great favourite of mine. I even made it the subject of a piece of artwork several years ago. Clearly shaped by hand, it has the air of a Japanese piece about it.

Found items IAVOM

I am on holiday on the Inner Hebridean island of Colonsay. It is my happy place. Thoughts of Colonsay rattle around in my head each and every day I am not here! I haven't got a vase to share this week but some lovely things I have found over the past few days, which are just as beautiful as a vase of flowers! I hope you agree! Here are some leaves of giant rhododendrons, growing in the outer gardens of Colonsay House. Some skeleton leaves of magnolia. The dried stem of a kelp seaweed. A couple of conkers (can never resist those!), and a branch heavily populated by a number of lichens. The air on Colonsay is so clean that lichens flourish here!
