Spanish Delights....

You know when you sometimes see something and you just HAVE TO HAVE IT?? Happened to me yesterday. Saw these. (in the Op Shop)....ghastly.......garish.........tacky.....indescribably gaudy......quite hideous and absolute conversation stoppers......... (proven when l placed them on the lunch room table at work) l just HAD to have them................................

Wine decanters............... real leather , stitched..................cork attached to tacky gold chain..Aren't they just great???They are Spanish, going by the writing on the bottom of the bottle.

l did try very hard to try to photograph them in a way to stop them looking awful but  l was totally unsuccessful. l love them.......Watch out.......you ever visit us here at Candlestick Farm  and your wine is going to be poured out of one of these!!!

Aside from that (Geoff is still recovering) l spent a very enjoyable day today in the garden. Mowing ,weeding, pruning and generally enjoying the sunshine.

Geoff came home (avoided the wine decanters) and we had a lovely BBQ at the tail end of the day and ate a meal fit for a king as the sun slowly disappeared behind the trees.

 Cask wine and rain water tanks......... how very Australian!!
