At the quay today we saw..


I love the quay at Exeter.
It's especially idyllic in the week as opposed to the weekend ... so few people are there.
But I was there this morning!!
The cellars are really lovely , you'll always find something unique ...cheese boards in all types of wood...lovely to feel.
and other handcrafted goodies.
A new coffee shop seems to have sprung up, although we didn't stop to sample what was on offer.



These angels tickled me pink!!
(Or should I say silver.)

Obviously,the highlight of the morning was finding three vintage baubles (at 50p each) in this little antique/vintage shop where I love to forage!!
I forgot to take a photo... and the baubles I will save for another day ;-)

  1. Exeter looks an exciting shopping place for Christmas, Sal. Love those silver angels - should be easy to make so shall have a try - certainly nicer than Tracy Emin's angel to make in Monday's copy of the Times. If my attempt is successful I will post it on my blog so that you can see it,

  9. I just wish I lived closer to Exeter. It's very frustrating to see all these gorgeous shops and not be able to get to them!

  10. That looks a lovely place to shop - I stopped there about 3 years ago, very briefly, and remember how good the shops were. Also remember a number of swans!
