This was so cool Western Australian Museum In the Alice in Wonderland exhibition there was a screen that took a photo of your face and put it on a card in the rose garden! Love it when there are interactive activities that are great for both kids and adults.

Great talk this evening with Costume Society UK A big thanks to Dr Kate Strasdin for talking to me about her new book. Go buy her book now! It’s an amazing read, taking you on quite the journey, weaving a fascinating tapestry of the mid 19th century.

My great grandmother attended the coronation of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth in 1937. We have her seat allocation, ticket and a blurry photo. My uncle is going to try stand in the same spot for this coronation!

My mini exhibition celebrating 70yrs of Laura Ashley is still on display at Llanidloes Museum & Library. The pink dress is my favourite!
