Christmas Time!

Bethnal and Roxie relax at home in front of a log fire, with the only other lights shining from the Christmas tree and the lamps on the shelf of the fireplace.

CHRISTMAS…

Marjolein had a tree delivered and was so disappointed that the only place she would put it, was in the hallway.

Metal Gala

Some of the ladies attended the annual ‘Metal Gala’ and this years theme was silver.

The ladies looked resplendent against the opulent reds & golds of the staircase at”Camberwell Hall” where the gala was held.

Abbe Lane

Abbe Lane finally left her husband after a row, over nothing in particular, but one that broke the camels back.

She packed some suitcases and arrived by taxi at the home of her good friend Miriam, who sat her down with a cup of tea (what else?) and just listened to her.

Miriam was pleased to see that her friend had packed several cases, and said ‘lets take a look at the clothes you have packed, then we’ll take them up to one of the bedrooms and we can unpack’

Abbe smiled a little through her tears and opened up the top case, and no surprise it held her cosmetics

Miriam knelt down on the floor next to the suitcases and opened up the second: Hair styling products, the third suitcase:  shoes and the fourth suitcase:  shoes

Where are your clothes Miriam wanted to know, and Abbe replied that she couldn’t carry more, but as long as you have make up on, hair styled and a good pair of heels it didn’t matter what you were wearing in between

Make up

Hair styled

Nice heels

.

That gave them both a good laugh and just then Miriam’s friend Bonita arrived for their pre-arranged lunch date.

Miriam sent Abbe upstairs to change into something more comfortable from her own wardrobe.

What could be better than being with friends, and shopping … bliss and respite for a short time.

Cardigan for Autumn

Bethany (Ficon Beta)is wearing a knitted garment, that is the first I have made for thirty years [that makes me feel oold…] and without a pattern   😀

The design is based on the styles made by ‘Per Una’ that I love.
