And love, the shoreline, where you & I meet.

Considering it is now essentially Spring, I am rather unimpressed by the weather.  It is consistently cold, drizzly & grey.  Where's the sunshine for pity sake!

To raise my spirits, my friend Amy came down for a visit yesterday afternoon.  I haven't seen her since I left London & so it was really nice to catch up.

We headed over to The Greedy Cow Deli & I finally got to try their pulled pork burger.  I was super naughty & got it topped with cheese & bacon.  Is it weird to have bacon on top of pulled pork?  It tasted darn good though!

I love The Greedy Cow, it's so cute & inviting.

We picked up a few cakes for after.  I got a custard cream cheesecake, which was quite dense, but super yummy.

After stuffing ourselves silly, we went for a little walk around town & popped into a few of the vintage shops.  Amy was determined to spend some pennies, so she ended up purchasing a little vintage gold clutch bag.  I fell in love with a metal carousel horse that had been turned into a light.  If I had high enough ceilings, I would have snapped it up!

 

Later we headed over to The Turner Gallery & saw the Maria Nepomuceno exhibition, which consisted of over-sized beads, woven straw, string & rope.  You were encouraged to pop on some rather fetching blue plastic bags on your feet & play amongst it.  I politely declined.  We also saw the Carl Andre, Mass & Matter exhibition & got told off for touching the 'sculptures'.  [yawn]

Overall it was a really nice day, despite the shoddy weather.
