Setting up at All Saints, Highgate -
Ready to go, thanks to the transport (and company) provided by Gill Harding -Six hours later, taking down -
Lovely venue - the sun shone, what a bonus! - with food and coffee and live music -
The Georgian Choir sometimes has concerts in the church, I'll be looking out for those - love the harmonies (the Georgian scale is based on the fifth rather than the octave).
My only purchase was a lovely blue jug, made by Alastair McKay -
On arriving home I was so jazzed up from the day that I immediately tackled The Back Wall, which has long since needed a sort-out. It took a mere three hours to rearrange the piles of books and magazines and the vases and those "saved for best" bottles of wine, and to bring the rickety bamboo shelf down from upstairs, and hoover and dust, and discover things that needed "throw or keep, and if so, where" decisions....
... and to clear the coffee table!
These times and places of calmness come and go, but - do yourself a favour - clear a surface ...

Your new blue jug is lovely! I have a stoneware jug with a heart sponge printed on it I have had for years. When I look at downsizing I keep thinking I will pass it on, but I just can't. I will have to find something else to left go of! LOL!!!
I have been trying to clean off surfaces too. You did a great job clearing up The Back Wall! I will be so glad when my brother finally sells his house. He hasn't lived there in a decade and me and another brother have had to care for it. I spent over 5 1/2 hours this weekend cleaning out his basement for the mole remediation workers; I needed that time to clean my own house! LOL!! He has a buyer for the house so at least I know I won't have to deal with his house much longer. Yeah!!
