There is so much wonderful color in the photos of this post. It's all just soooo cheerful! Hmmm, so the urine thing, sounds kinda strange to us, but people work with what they have available. And I'm sure they have been washed since. Your Matroyshka's are very cute!

How funny they have to collect children's urine though, I've heard that urine was used in the past to bleach leather white, all the ammonia I guess. The garden is looking great, the flowers are gorgeous and that's a great harvest of pumpkins. The Babushkas are so sweet and well done finding cute little Wilfred.

Nice to see you again. I can't believe the colour in the trees, ours have non what so ever! just knot cold enought here at the moment. I think the wind will move the leaves before they colour up this year. No. 1 was great Sunday night - warmed us up a bit with the clapping. Your sewing looks amazing as I scan your previous blogs. I don't suppose you want to share your amazing veggie curray we had while in Yack a few weeks ago. I hope you get this, my first time ever on a blog.
