#Blogeverydayaugust.. Day 26... Whats in your Reading Pile? xx

I tend to read random books.. l don't particularly have an author that l favour, and over the years l have read many different kinds of books... years ago l read the whole series of books my Lena Kenedy, all about life in the East End of London as that is where all my family came form and l used to lose myself in the stories and could imagine my grandma living through the book..

but at present my Reading pile consists of 

1... Two"IF" books which l love they make you think and smile...

2...The Vintage Teacup Club.. by Vanessa Greene..

3... The Things l want my daughters to know.. by Elizabeth Noble.. ( this book has been an emotional roller coaster for me to read as l have a Journal my Mum wrote for me when she was dying last year and l still can not read all the letters she has written to me in it..) 

4... Birthday Girls... Annabel Giles..

OutfitAugust Day 26..Navy with a splash of Red...

Todays outfit really is me coming out of my comfort zone, l love it though... l have to say.. normally l wear tops that a quite loose rather than show off my curves but having been reading through others bloggers posts and seeing their pictures it has given me confidence in trying new things...


 Ponte Top was from Dorothy Perkins a few months ago... Navy Jeggings from Peacocks,  l just adore these shoes l got from Ebay .. and then we have my bootfair bargain Poppy handbag.. to complete the outfit.

Bank Holiday Outing...

On this wet and very grey Bank Holiday Monday, it was a bit of a spur of the moment outing.. off to the American Dinner Near Ashford Kent.. with Mr Happy, Mandy, (his sister)  and Colin (brother in law)...










 l had never been before but the others all had, l loved the 1940's feel to the place, but l have to say the food was nice but  mmmm not great, A lovely afternoon out anyway.

Dover won 2-1 ... happy fans 



 Home for some gardening and found my wee friend... and then cut down the Pampas Grass... my first time using the hedge cutter love it ... 







 and lastly sitting and watching the sun go down and the most beautiful sky  until it got dark ... 

That was my day..............
