Happy Birthday to Me! - Giveaway!


It is my birthday today.

To celebrate I am giving away this book.

It is a reprint of book from the fifties and is part of a series about different cities.

I really love the illustrations.
For some reason I am writing in stacatto sentences.

It has all the major London landmarks and lots of interesting characters.

To enter the giveaway celebration just leave a comment here, between now and next Wednesday-27th October I think. I will draw a name then!

I have been here, and had a lovely meal in their chop house. It is really old and has a great front room-you could be having a pint next to Dickens!
I love the swirlyness of this picture!


Cassie is greatly enjoying my present wrappings!

    Happy Birthday, dear Sarah! Hope you had a great day!
    You really are very generous; the book looks very pleasant.
    ( I don't think you should include my name in the draw; you've already been very generous to me)

    I just found your blog and I love it. I want to wish you a very happy, albeit belated, birthday. I have scrolled down and seen a few of your posts, and am in awe of your photographs and digital art. You are very, very talented and quite an inspiration.

    in 1963/64, my family spent a year in London. Before we left the US, my mom bought this book for my sister and me- I guess so we'd know what to expect! I have very fond memories of it- amazing artwork!
    And, Happy Birthday!
