Such a lovely story. I love that you have gone back to where you began. I have been thinking a lot about childhood homes recently as we prepare to sell
ours. So many precious memories woven into the walls and hidden in the earth.
Indeed, and I’m lucky enough to still have Mum and Dad around to share their memories. I do hope you can find some pleasure in reliving your childhood as you prepare to bid your family home farewell. Xx
I knew much of this story already of course but loved reading it. Also, that picture from 1900, so cool. I love imagining the lives that came before us (although I need not really in our current home because we know a bit too much about the family that lived here before us 😂). Enjoy your weekend and days away with Mike! xx
What an absolutely glorious post! I have goosebumps all over! Thank you so much for sharing the story of The Post House, and the lovely photos of you - looking grumpy in the black dress, and not so grumpy in the white dress!
A lovely read. I do look forward to Friday updates! Xxx
I’m happy you enjoy reading 😘
Such a lovely story of coming full circle!!! xx
Going round in circles pretty much describes me all over 🤣

I think of serendipity when I read this Vanessa. Such a lovely story which has me wondering about my childhood home. Not that I would ever go back!
I hope you have a great week of creative company and conversation lovely - enjoy! x
Serendipity is just the right word I think, I still find myself surprised to be back here somehow but I’m grateful it’s full of happy memories. Xx
What a lovely history, Ness. John and I are so pleased that we were in attendance for some of the wonderful events there.♥️
We need to do a good old trawl through the family albums and share some of the good stuff I think! Xx
Lovely to see and read about The Post House history. I have such fond memories of times there. Enjoy your weekend. Xx
I need your help to recall some of the childhood mischief! And you’d love Fforest I think… xx
Ok I shall do my best!!
Fforest sounds great xx
An amazing story. Hope you’re having a fab weekend at Fforest. JoJo is heading there next week!
I hope she’ll have a wonderful weekend too, well I’m certain she will actually. Have fun home alone! x
Ah, for certain Glow Sew will be fab for JoJo. And I am sneaking off on my bike to Rochefort for a few days of writing. So not so home alone! Yay.
Oh lovely! Happy writing ✍🏻 xx
Thanks so much 💛
Wonderful story and history! I adore the photos. Didnt think you looked grumpy at all! I agree with the goosebumps feeling while reading this! 🤍
It’s true to say that I can certainly look grumpier than in that photo! 😂

I’ve been trying to persuade Mike we should recreate that photo for Halloween! 😂
Lovely post. I have such wonderful memories of The Post House xx
There have been many fun nights haven’t there 🙈😂

I wish you many, many happy years there xxx
I’m looking forward to showing you around finally! Xx
You are 'just down the road' at Fforest Coast...well, not far anyway from us in Aberystwyth 😊
Ah - I came to the ceramics festival there last year and hope to return next year! x
Fab, wasn't it!😊
Yes - brilliant! Are you a potter too?
Hmm - ish .Though I am on the cusp of giving up and selling my little kiln. Wanna buy a little kiln?
What I actually need is a bigger kiln 🙈 I keep making things that don’t fit in mine 🙄😂
Sorry you’re giving up though - just moving onto other things I hope? Xx
Lost my urge to create 😞
