Antiques Fair Galore

It's Spring Bank Holiday Monday! Yep indeedy. It was turning out to be a lovely day, the sun was shining. I got up early and trotted off to Doncaster Racecourse, not to bet on race horses but to check out their antique wares (old stuff).
I did a little dance when i saw this beauty....


A gorgeous ceramic pineapple!!! I love pineapple's, well any fruity things really. But this was a sight to behold. I also came home with a cucumber character ceramic pot. That needs a clean though and a fancy hand held mirror so i can occasionally look at it and chant "who's the fairest of them all?" as you do. It reminded me of the husband too. The pattern has a little bearded man in the handle.

The other half when back to get a taxidermy weasel?! Yes, I said a taxidermy weasel. He's an odd one. However, when we went back we couldn't find it then i spotted it under one of the tables wrapped up with it's head popping out. Yep, someone else had their eye on the beauty too.

So, had an awesome bank holiday. It's a shame the sun went in and the rain now won't stop as i was planning on some gardening later. Boo, it'll have to wait.

Hope everyone is having fun xxx
