IT'S THE FIFTH SO DOLL PHOTO DAY

 Yes, thank goodness the King didn't pick the fifth for his coronation! He'd have been surrounded by well dressed dolls!



Hildegard and Rick are off enjoying some holiday fun! I hope they have a lovely time and that the weather treats them kindly!!!



Teresa's girl Skipper is dressed for the Abbey and been reading up on the king, I hope she won't be shocked when a much older Charles arrives for hos coronation! 


Over at Gregoropolis Kenzo, a nice Inuit lad, is complementing Daphne on her new outfit. She does look gorgeous in the matching dress and shoes by Ruth Hartley, the colour suits her perfectly as does Kenzo outfit.



Sebastian Jasper Charles Philip William Rose Gregor, Prince of this realm, is excited to watch his cousin Charles be crowned King tomorrow. 

Many thanks for everyone sending in their photos. still time to join in.

MAYDAY

 Yes it's the first of May!


We have bought a new bigger flag, since the one that came with the flag pole had gotten tatty and very faded and we want to celebrate the King's Coronation in style.

The wind kindly blew nice and strong, so I could get a good shot of it in full flow.

I could not really tell you where the week went, but pottering about was done and some weeding also. The attention has shifted to the garden, due to the drier weather and that fact that the flower garden was meant to be sorted over the autumn / winter but due to weather was left. 


This whole area needs to be turned into a circular path through the space, with the borders being made slightly bigger.

Paul's made a start , with a little help from me, I'd love to do more but am having trouble with the arthritis in my left knee, but I am helping where I can.

It's still taking me half an hour or more to workout how to get my photos onto this laptop, I finally find the way and then promptly forget just what I did!

Being a royalist, we will be celebrating all next weekend, as will all the dolls, who are already getting excited. So lots to do to get their coronation tea party ready along with our own.

We finally planted a tree in honour of Queen Elizabeth the second, 70th Jubilee and since we were doing that we also planted another for the King.

On the doll front it's been very quiet.

Please send in your photo's for doll day on the 5th, we will be celebrating the king's coronation all week on the blog. If you are not a royalist you can still enjoy the party celebations.

Wishing you all a happy healthy month ahead
