Isle Idles

Isle of Purbeck is not an island. It is a peninsula on the Dorset coast. And it has one of the most romantic castle ruins ... Corfe Castle. I spent a lovely, though wet, afternoon there about ten years ago.

Andy also spent a lovely afternoon on the Isle of Purbeck. He and his wife took a double-deck bus (eek! those things scare me!) to Swanage down in the southeast corner and enjoyed all manner of seaside activities. But the activity that most attracted my eye was the mention of "many" postcard shops.

I got more than a bit caught up in the William and Katherine wedding in April. It surprised me that I was glued to the wedding coverage because that is not something that usually captures my attention. If I had been in London, I would have been out on the streets that day, for sure. And this postage is so very sweet. I hope they are always this happy.

So J-E-A-L-O-U-S of the stamp! I get fantastic ones of the royal couple from my friend in Canada but not that one!
