Fergeal's Wonderful Weekend! Part 3.

The lady who had the Antique Lace brought in some more..this time bobbin lace. I had a good look. She said that it was ok to show these pictures. I wanted top learn as much as possible.





This one is Honiton Lace...gosh what eyesight they must have had.

There was a lady making bobbin lace



Good heavens all those bobbins!!

My mom was given a job...they told her to untangle all these threads!!! she didn't do it tho!!



The most fun that I had was when we went into a shop! and i found a lot of books that were soooh interesting.



Oh my he looks ugly!!, I never did find out what the truth was as she wouldn't buy it for me!



This one isn't quite so scary but doesn't look much like me.



But can ya see what it says on the back.. I am learning stuff here that I never knew !!!

Just in case ya can't read!! this is what it says.....


Leprechauns are supposed to know where pots of gold are buried and they guard this sectet very well. They are very hard to ensnare, and if you manage to catch one then you must hold him very firmly and never, even for a second, take your eyes off him, because in the blink of an eye he can dissapear and will use every trick he knows to escape..so be warned!!


Ooops! Brendan must have know this!! No wonder she held on to my feet at the Giants Causeway...as if I would!! Some of us know when we have a good thing going!!



One more book to read and this one looks like fun!

My mom showed me to the man behind the counter and he said that I was too tall to be a leprechaun...now how does he know that????
She told him tho', she said "He is a Cork Leprechaun, we breed them tall there!!"

See!!



Well she caught me trying to run off with this...so she bought it for me!!

I soon got rid of those chocolate imposters!.....



and now its MINE..all mine.





I'll be seeing ya!!

Gotta tell ya about Toastie tomorow...by request!

  2. This is so funny Fergeal. I agree with Lady Shuttle Maker. You ARE a hoot! I'm glad you and your Mum set the shop keeper straight. And that you got rid of the chocolate imposters!
