Here is a picture of another Olive.....an actress called Olive Borden. So they even had Olive's in the 1930's! I found this picture on a freebie website....... Had a great day in Liverpool with another Divine Diva, Sue Roddis another brilliant artist, with a weird sense of the ridiculous and inventiveness...we met at Lime St Station (Sue lives in Crewe) and then walked in the rain down to Bold St, Rennies the art shop being the first place on the list. Of course we bought pens, books for journalling and other lovely goodies. Of course we had to stop for coffee, cake and a catch up on the antics of her life in foreign parts. Hilarious!!! Before we took root in the coffee shop we decided to do some more shopping.... one of the shops I wanted to take Sue to of course was closed, so no skull scarves or bracelets for us!!! Next stop Bluecoat School to the book shop.... no!!! it has moved:) so another walk and there it was..... absolute heaven. Got some great books, wanted more but couldn't afford it, so off for another coffee with a sandwich this time.... more time passed. T K Maxx was next on the agenda. Its HUGE.... iI bought stuff to craft with, cookie cutters in great shapes, thrilled with those. Oh yes, got a gorgeous book from Oxfam (a bit pricey) the cover is yummy and filled with music..... Desperately want to go back to the Bluecoat Book shop for a good mooch and they even have a coffee shop upstairs (if I go with the other half somewhere for him). Came home EXHAUSTED and foot weary (soaked feet in salt bath!) but had a most marvellous and stimulating day. Thank you Sue...... Unfortunately Suzyq couldn't be with us as she is nursemaid to her daughter who is recovering from an operation....... Ciao
