Did you know Marjorie that she was supposedly inspired by the area around the Godrevy Lighthouse and I had listed it as a possible to put on this thread, lol.  So to go with your lighthouse here is a pic of the Godrevy Lighthouse (don't want to waste a great photo!)

No I didn't know that Cathy.  I love the area around Godrevy, but my lighthouse is at the end of the breakwater where I live, so it seemed appropriate.  I know Lorry, who also lives here in Brixham.  Such amazing photos are surfacing through these threads!

Okay, who's going to do The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe?

I reckon I could find a Lion and a Witch, but a Wardrobe???

I thought you would, logical isn't it.  Maybe just Narnia, lol.  Look for the wardrobe in the bedrooms of my tour "Interiors - stately" about 4th page of thumbnails, should be one there.  How's that?
