My life on the table

On my dining table at the moment there is a pile of airing waiting to be put away. The hand-held bit of my Dyson. A couple of cake tins. And a Seasalt catalogue. Sums my life up pretty well.

A book ,biography or recent history.CD's a good bottle of wine baking tins and ingredients, cookery books , piles of old photographs and some new ones of GC.My SNP badge and the Saltire I carry in marches .Usually wedding magazines as I like to keep up with the trends even though we're about to retire from photography.I too have half drunk cup of tea .I can find mine anywhere in the house as I carry it around with me and then forget where I left it

a half drunk cup of tea has just reminded me that I have one of those at the moment, but mine’s gone cold! ?? A frequent occurrence here!

We are going away to CP in Suffolk with AS & his family for a few days next week. Consequently the house has piles of things ready to take & transfer to the car. I’ve just eaten my breakfast on the semi cluttered dining table. As I looked up it occurred to me the items pushed to one corner of the table portrayed bits and pieces of my character and interests; a vase of pale coloured roses, another vase of fake daffodils, my telescope in the corner, a dress with a spool of cotton on the top waiting for mending, a piece of pottery which has been drying in the sunshine from the window, a pair of gardening gloves & secateurs, a cut up pear & banana, a half drunk cup of tea (how many times do I do this) & a very old map book of England. I was wondering what few items would portray you?
