Those curtains are so at odds with the cushions I can't even get my head around what any plan was for this room textile wise.

Thousands for these drapes... meh. Really not worth it. And yes too long. Not a fan at all of this BLAAAAAHHH. And those sofa pillows look out of place and the colors again... clash 😑

All new carpet and curtains after only what... 2 years?

This curtain is actually making me physically unwell. It’s probably the first and only time I’ll have a reaction to a curtain. I’ve had to have a banana to calm down. I need to write in my diary about this. I need to journal this.

May be a little early for new thread title suggestions but I'm sure we will fly through this one as usual :)

I can confirm,@Oops, that there will be no - repeat - no ketchup at either of these prestigious events. What kind of Tattler would lower the tone by suggesting squeezy bottles of ketchup ( cough, cough, ahem). To make it up to you, I will keep a beady eye on the day for such contraband items, such as ketchup, balsam, mayo and, God forbid, barbeque sauce. Those found in possession will be prosecuted, fined, and forcibly removed by moi. 😉
Thank goodness! I don’t know if I can “cope” with pizza dipped in ketchup 😱🤪😂

I can confirm @Oops after a little persuation, long intense discussions and with the poring over dates in our expensive Smythson diaries, myself and... wait for it.... the one and only, Mr Alan Titchmarsh will be more than happy to attend the Bonnet and Frocks Garden Party to be held on the first Saturday in May with... MEEEEE! Mr Titchmarsh, being the superstar of the gardening world has many, many interesting stories to tell regarding Verbena and Herbaceous borders.

Swoooon!!!!
I am so delighted to hear this. I will put both you and your Mr Darcy Alan Titchmarsh on my list to be published soon. 👏👏

Love you ❤ Brilliantly creative! 🤣
I know you will be surrounded by hand written spreadsheets from now until Downtonbury but @toomuchstuff raised a good point about the dress code and @Milking Keynes has started a list of possible banned items....
Please do delegate tasks if this all becomes too overewhelming!

Also, if you are new to this thread, and I see some of you have liked comments but not posted yet, you may not know what the hell is going on...
Don't worry about that! We just love a good festival/party/pantomime/event on here, so dive right in. The more, the merrier!

We will do our best to answer questions but for background information on Lydia go to the red button at the top of the page.

Please may I come? I could do a styling workshop, 50 ways to belt up, if you think folk would show some interest. In full disclosure though I must add that I like a bit of sossidge with my ketchup. Will security be checking pockets?
