At the Vintner's Hall, there is a portrait of an 18th-century gentleman called Mr Van Horn, who, over a twenty-two year period, managed to consume 35,680 bottles of wine. That's an average of 4 and a half bottles a DAY. He lived to be ninety.

Nature meant very kindly by women when she made the tea plant; and with a little thought, what a series of pictures and groups the fancy may conjure up and assemble round the teapot and cup.

Just an average twenty-something… I love many things but high on my list are music, films, crafting, drinking tea & God -though not necessarily in that order. I try to be joyful, I live, I dream, I hope, I create, I am inspired.
