Today saw a bit of a disaster on the technology front.
Although I love my laptop, it is getting a bit elderly now and has been misbehaving a bit recently.
Today, it and my camera seem to have had a falling out. At any rate, they are currently refusing to speak to one another.
I’m not sure if it’s the laptop, the camera, or the lead that connects the two that’s at fault.
But whichever it is, further photos are off the agenda and those already taken are stuck in my camera until I get to the root of the problem.
So it’s a good job I uploaded these pictures of my recent finds when I did.
The other day I took a tour of some of the vintage shops across the other side of town, the ones that I don’t get to very often.
And I picked up a few little bargains on my travels…
I love the fabric in this frock.
But this bargain bin beauty will be cut up for the fabric, as not only is it much too small for me, someone obviously had a bit of a sweaty time in it, which has, unfortunately, left it’s mark.
As well as a pretty floral design, it unfortunately also sports a couple of somewhat unsavoury stains under the arms.
Despite my fondness for the sweaty frock, my favourite find of the day has to be this fishy fabric…
It’s a piece of unused 1960s towelling. Not sure what I’ll do with it as yet, but it was too good to miss.
So now I’m off to find someone who can bang my computer and my camera’s heads together and get them to kiss and make up.
Let’s hope I can sort out my camera conundrum before I have any more finds to photograph. ♥
Sweet finds…as soon as I typed that I thought sweat finds, couldn’t be helped. 😀 I love that fish fabric too…so unique!
Love those fishes! I had a similar difficulty with my camera – macbook relationship: I bought a little card reader and dispensed with the lead – no problems now.
Ah, thanks for the tip!
Love that fish fabric too! You always seem to find great stuff in the shops near you. The sweaty dress made me laugh! The other day I saw a vintage floral housecoat/dressing gown that would have been great if it wasn’t for the large yellow stain centre front in line with the crotch area – eewh!!
Love those placemats!
