Coventry

Went to Coventry today to pick up someone's e mail address and to give mine. Nice time, picked up some really nice odds and ends in the charity shops there. Saw that there were quite a few people from here there.

Then went on to Brum basically to get the train back. Went to the 98p shop and got some things that will be great to make into other things. I'll make crescent moons from some of the circular things I bought, and stars from the smaller ones. The colours are great. There are crescent moons there but the ones I'll make are in different colours. Obviously can make other things as well. Got hair scrunchie type things with individual material flowers on them which I'll unpick and save the flowers from, saves making them myself.

There are a lot of things from Tibet in there at the moment. Fascinating because they're from Tibetan culture and are very different from other things you see here. Some of the things are really beautiful. The Chinese things are very arty too. Incredible to look at what's been made.
