They're only about half an inch long!<br /><br />Angella: We do love our finds, though Olga prefers the edible ones. :) As for Trellick Tower, familiarity bred affection -- I see it from our bedroom windows every day and I've come to love its quirky design, Communistic though it may be.<br /><br />Ana: Yeah, I didn't make it to Battersea. From what I hear, the lines were hellish.<br /><br />Linda Sue: See my comment to Angella above re. the tower. It IS kind of ugly, but it's so unusual I've come to love it, and architecturally it is a very significant building in London. I may be persuaded to surrender these keys at some point...<br /><br />Elizabeth: See next post! :)Steve Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11684120060438252945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-67503637995841431082013-09-23T04:47:58.726+01:002013-09-23T04:47:58.726+01:00I can't wait to hear of your long line waiting...I can't wait to hear of your long line waiting and what you saw!Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03313726816776097840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-33736383970918496722013-09-22T21:20:01.111+01:002013-09-22T21:20:01.111+01:00The towers ARE the ugliest!

When you get tired of them hanging around I will come over and pick them up...save you a trip, I'm thoughtful like that...I am felting foundlings, including little charms or talismans As was done back in the day when they were left at the doorstep of the church or hospital or orphanage. Usually the mother was so poor she could not leave much- maybe a button and the little treasures were not left with the child- they were taken! So sad all the way around.<br />Anxious to see photos of your "house" adventure - what is the draw to the icky towers anyway??? <br />Linda Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03070050388987072100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-18681905014963073092013-09-22T18:28:30.404+01:002013-09-22T18:28:30.404+01:00Ooo Battersea would be amazing.

You both love found treasure. And I'm curious about what changed your mind about the beauty or lack thereof of the Trellick Tower? Maybe it's in the link? I'll go back and click it...<br />37paddingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12400464105403622384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-41140458169474113772013-09-22T14:02:25.057+01:002013-09-22T14:02:25.057+01:00Good luck with the long lines!
