Where is Nelly?

Here I am! What a busy few weeks I have had.
Couldnt post on the FOF a few weeks back coz of no net tower as it was blown by a lightening strike.
Came 7 hours down south to help mum and forgot my power cord so no Movie Star Monday.Had cord sent and nothing from me since  as have been run off feet packing,sorting, throwing, dehoarding , oh and nabbing lots of vintagey things (mum is a worse hoarder than me,true that,least I have regular culling) But sometimes hoarding is good as I was  able to score some great vintage peices you will see eventually

I am still down south at mums The Captain and most other kids are back home while I continue to help sell mums sellable items.
Next week up to sisters 12 hours away from here and where The Captain will travel  to meet me.Will be fun as my grandkids and my sisters kids are all similar age and havent seen each other for 2 years.

Anyway nuff chatting here are some of the things I found in mums vintage collection (not counting hats and other things I have already sent home) all of below  I will eventually nab I hope.

Vintage Girdle fitted but I didnt tighten it

Most gorgeous Dressing gown that was given to me and I wore in hospital when some of my kds were born.Thought we had lost this.It was given to me by a lady who wore it while in hospital when 49 years ago.Mum thinks it actually belonged to the mother of lady who gave it to me.So happy to have it again.These are times where  hoarding is good.

Trudy you would love the vintage kids clothes

an old tie and my Great grandfathers braces

I think its a little top?

and my 50s swimmers I thought Id lost years ago.Sadly they no longer fit me last time they did I was 22 sad so sad.
