Old Girls and Spunk Rats. Beachside.

We have got all our crop in (all dry seeded) and so we headed to the beach for the weekend.  When we first bought The Beach House we did a "walk in walk out" deal with the previous owners.  It meant we scored lots of furniture and interesting bits of kitchen gear.  Over time I have gradually made it feel more like our beach house by aiming for the casual" nanna-by-the-sea" vibe I have discussed before on this blog.  This was helped along greatly by the fact that the previous owner was a bona fide "nanna-by-the-sea".

Anyway- one of the first things I did in the decorating department was cover the pin up board with some stripy fabric and cut out pictures from magazines that were supposed to provide sea side inspiration.  (For me this was an extremely crafty thing to do as we all know I am the anti-craft and can turn craft projects into disasters with a single touch.)  Inevitably this pin up board has turned into a hodge podge of takeaway menus and business cards for various tradesmen.  Tucked among the mess there is still the odd inspirational picture.

And just so you can see what tickled my fancy I decided to show you this.

Road Signs With A Coastal Twist

For those of you baffled by my blurry photography the sign says "Caution.  Watch for Children on the Road.  Also Old Girls and Spunk Rats."  Obviously a family holiday house where all ages come to stay.

In other news, rain is forecast here.  Excitement.  Cross everything that it delivers.

Best go - first day back at work after the long weekend in WA and am going to fortify myself with another coffee first.

Take care.
