From Bland to Bling

Today I was planning to take my friend to Lullingstone Roman Villa in Kent, not too many miles from where I live. Unfortunately she had to cancel. It annoys me, but I shouldn't let it. She has a long journey by public transport to get here (though it's true that if we go anywhere I do the driving) and though I don't often cancel, I bet I would if I had to catch two or three trains to meet up with her. This time it was not a migraine, but a fall. I bought her mother a step-stool for her birthday so she wouldn't be tempted to clamber up on to chairs and risk injury. No, my friend has done that instead!

I wasn't sure what I was going to do instead. Eventually, halfway through the afternoon, I decided to go to Bromley to do some shopping. One of the shops I visited was Swarovski. It's been ages since I bought anything there. Their selection seems to have become so bland in the past few years. But today I spotted this ring, with a butterfly and a ladybird on it.

The butterfly wings are on a little ring and move around. I'm sure it will be a pain at times, but it was too cute to leave behind, and not nearly as expensive as most of their other stuff. For a change, they even had my size!

I bought a Swarovski collar for my girlie cat. She hates it.

Best wishes to your friend!

I'm glad Hannah isn't here to see that ring..we'd be on our way to the Swarovski shop in Oxford if she had :-)

Hope your friend recovers quickly..and I should have read your post 30 minutes ago, although I didn't fall off this time
