While we were off gallivanting this morning, Lynne stayed at the loom weaving. By lunchtime she had a respectably long scarf ready to cut off the loom. By mid-afternoon she had twisted and knotted the fringe and was modeling her “art project”., her first handwoven piece. It’s been delightful guiding her through the process!
It was at Bletchley Park that the Allied Codebreakers deciphered German military messages during the Second World War. A free guided tour gave us a good overview of the campus and the activities that occurred here from 1938 to 1945.
A lovely way to spend a Sunday in Hampstead. We visited the historic Fenton House to view lots of lovely collectibles, to listen to and learn about harpsicords, and to tour and linger in the garden before heading off to the historic Spaniard’s Inn for a most delectable Sunday Roast.
A visit to the London Transport Museum in Covent Garden gave us insight into the evolution and role of public transportation in the creation of London as a great metropolitan area.
Thank you for teaching me the loom. It was fun; and it was wonderful having such a great teacher. You made it easy to learn.
