My garden gnome arrived.

In the garden it went.

Those dark clouds don't look good!

Now to have a look around some charity shops.

First one had vinyl records...

DVDS...

A unicorn, which I bought!

Next Charity Shop had a nice crochet blanket for sale.

I am a true beginner I said.

At least the blanket will keep me warm in the winter!

Nice shoes pity they are not my size!

One charity shop had a Minion I didn't own,
