A couple of 'tarts' in Bakewell.

A while back my fabby friend Emma and I organised a SWAP.
find her here at  Em's shabby shack.
We got on so well that we still chat often on the phone
and have mentioned meeting up several times...

...and so we found ourselves meeting up in Bakewell!



We both forgot our cameras
(WHAT???  Is that a blogging crime???)
So whomever took these lovely photos that
I have found on Google Images
please forgive me stealing them.

So there we are, two mad women who
can both talk 10 to the dozen,
let loose in this gorgeous area of
the country. 

Lots of coffee stops and
lots of Em laughing at me drinking Peppermint tea!
She's so used to me drinking wine whilst we chat in the evenings.

We had a good old rummage in junk shops,
antique shops, fabric shops and lots of the many lovely trinket and gift shops.

Plus a visit to here



Although I am on the STRICTEST of diets of late,
I still bought a pudding, but for my Mummy,
as she had collected the boys from school that day so
I could stay out longer with Em.

We found a funny little shop in the corner
of a pretty little court yard that had wonderful hats displayed outside.
We had a mad few minutes trying them on,
Em managed to snap us together on her phone!



We were acting daft and the shop owner came out
so we made a sharp exit, running away
giggling like 2 naughty school girls!
I have promised her that
I will only put this snap on here if I explain that she
was pulling the silly face on purpose!  Bless her.

So, there you have it.

" 2 mad tarts in Bakewell!"

Thanks for a great day out Emma,
here's to many more.

Love C. x
