Today, I'm back in the place that I love! ;-)
After such a busy week with teaching. I needed to relax somewhat!
It's always a pleasure to sit by the Cathedral and watch the world go by.
The weather was lovely and the street entertainers were out in force.
This is my favourite of them all.
Jerri Hart, the musician and singer with such a rich voice.
Today, he was in Princesshay, adding to the atmosphere.
This man is seriously good! I could stand and listen to him, forever.
Superb in fact! Great sounds from that trumpet too!

And just a stones throw from him...
'The Yeoman Of the Guard' was being promoted by Exeter University's Gilbert and Sullivan Society.
It's on stage at Exeter's Northcott Theatre, in March:
In contrast...
Spin 2
This is a band worth watching whether you're a lover of contemporary folk music..or not!
They positioned themselves right outside M&S and as you can see even the mannequins in the window were jigging along. Honest!
And so was I!!
I can never keep still when there's live music!
Great stuff!
And dotted around the city were various musicians doing their thing.
All of that entertainment for free!!
Exeter at its best.

After that we went into the Orange Tree (how could we not!!)...where Nich finally bought a clock for his room...the very clock that he has been eyeing up for weeks and weeks!
He's certainly taken his time thinking about it!
Later , we walked to Habitat to see fellow blogger, Joe... and we had a long chat and a laugh.
She really loves her blogging..especially the swaps and things like that, she says!
Hi Joe!! ;-)

A quick dash into Laura Ashley ...where who could not resist these?!
And into the best card shop in Exeter..The Card Gallery in Queen Street..
This wonderful Amy Butler card book...I was so thrilled to find this!
With which I am going to do lovely things for the V&H fair.
Just have a sneak peek at these designs:

Tomorrow, all being well, Mr Snippets is taking me to the 'Blind Lemon Vintage Fair ' which just happens to be on the campus at Exeter University!! So no problem finding our way there !
I'm really looking forward to that!
I do so love Saturdays! Hope your day was a good one too.
