Traveller's little street.

Traveller lives on one of the prettiest little streets in North London.

It is full of bustling cafés, yummy delis and quaint little shops.

The best part is that it's close enough to the city {only one stop from Paddington}, yet far enough away to be quiet and village-like.

A splash of sea water

When Traveller wrote in a recent post that she would like her mum to bring a splash of sea water and a bottle of sand, she wasn't quite being literal. Imagine her surprise when her mum managed to smuggle in a bottle of sand and sea water from her home in Australia. It even has a little shell inside it!

Apparently, Traveller's dad read the post, and made his way down to the beach, to make sure T received what she really wanted. Aw, thanks Dad!

Traveller loves and misses the beach so much. There really is nothing like it.

It also brings back lovely reminders of her and hubbie's wedding day.

Mum, when you visit...

please could you bring:

a day of sunshine
a cuddle from each niece and nephew
a bottle of sand
a freshly ripened mango
a chat with a sibling

a plate of the ramsay's bbq food - prawns please!
a splash of sea water
a burrito from los hombres
a bowl of your fruit salad

my polaroid camera from a box somewhere in our garage
a ruffle of my hair from dad
a bucket of ramsay madness and laughter
a swing on our hammock

and

a big hug from you!


Oh, and all the strawberry freddos, cherry ripes, jars of promite, allen's lollies, tim tams and chicken twisties you can muster!
