Everyday I try and do a " power walk" up the hill lane next to the Gop and around what we villagers call " The Marian" . I usually do this alone as all of the dogs but William are past marching in the heat of a summer's day.
Towards the top of the Hill, high up over Trelawnyd ,sits an estate cottage. For some reason it shrieks 1940 to me , although the cottage is much older.
It is, pure vintage.......and vintage , apparently is the word du jour at the moment.
The Professor sees " vintage" as tat.
I see vintage as " lived in"
The truth, I suspect is somewhere in between.
I'm in the middle of carpet washing this morning and am not getting much done and my last visitor was a hiker and her friend after some eggs, more or less walked into the front door as I was clearing out the log burner.
"Your living room looks like a 1950s film set" the woman chirped up pointing at our vintage lamp and the pre war bookcase.
" vintage is in" I informed her proudly

Old jugs lie everywhere
The pans I use the most are two enamelled pots from the 1940s
Vintage linen in the hall
Untidy bookcases in the living room and bedroom
