I should be making more and more doorstops, like those above, but there are just so many things I want to do, see and read. I just can't buy the time to do them all, so I really need to prioritise.
The Wish List
I want to go to two exhibitions in London; The Age of Enchantment exhibition at the Dulwich Picture Gallery showing Victorian illustrations of children's fairy tales, featuring paintings by Edmund Dulac and Kay Nielson.

I desperately want to see the The Golden Age of Couture, 1947-1957 exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum having studied the work of Christian Dior's famous 1947 fashion revolution at college. When am I going to get time? I just don't know. Maybe I can snaffle some time before Christmas, see my sister and get some Christmas shopping done. Mmm, sounds like
a good plan.
I want to read Shopping, Seduction and Mr Selfridge by Lindy Woodhead, which is a history of the Selfridge's founder and background of modern-day department store. I also want to read Suite Francaise by Irene Nemirovsky as I have just finished Atonement by Ian McEwan and would like to read more fiction set in the time of the Second World War. And last but not least, I want to read Playing with the Grown-ups by Sophie Dahl. I have heard her being interviewed several times recently and I am curious how she writes in comparison to her famous grandfather, Roald Dahl.
I have added my book list to my Away Fixtures as it usually takes a holiday to get some great reading done, a bit of a hint there!

Is too long to go on...
