This and That

We made the most of the milder weather recently 
and had a great walk down to The Fleet
(a lagoon tucked behind Chesil Beach)

The faded paint on the boats looked so lovely in the sunshine.





 Found a great vintage card game in a charity shop the other day, 
It's snap, but a German version, 
so you have to shout Schnipp Schnapp instead.

  1. I am loving the hulls on those boats. Thinking at first they were expressionist pieces by you, maybe we are all 'missing the boat' and should get a fat brush?
