Hello lovely girls,
How has your week been? Lots of smiles to go round? Have there been clouds? Then there is always a silver lining.
I'm going to show you a postcard which will make you smile:
Yes, they are the 'naughty aunties' by Finnish illustrator Inge Löök. The card doesn't come from Finland though; it was posted in Germany and it has a normal, but pretty, floral stamp on it:
And just for fun, the sender has added a colourful 'aunties' sticker:
My week has tripped along nicely (as my blog friend Virginia would say). I've done gym and Pilates and have gone for long walks, the longest one was yesterday when my friend Antonia and I walked for 6 km. At some point we saw a sign that said they were working on the 'Camino de Tia Antonia', (Auntie Antonia's way):
Of course she wanted to be photographed by the sign:
And he am I too, just for good measure:
I've this week booked a little holiday (next month). Resorts on the south coast of Spain are usually half empty out of season and because I'm over 65, I can go on a (possibly subsidized) holiday, full board, transport, 10 days for a ridiculously low price. So next month I will be going to Matalascañas in the Huelva province.
It's in the middle of the brown coastline.The climate is very mild so, although it won't be bikini weather, it will most certainly be short sleeve weather ideal for walks and sight-seeing.
That's it from me and I'll leave you with a photo of what gives me most smiles:
I'm going to check out my friends' smiles and head over to Annie at A Stitch In Time
Have a lovely weekend,
Hugs,
Lisca

Sounds like a good, sportive week! And a holiday to look forward to, great!
Thank you, too for the smiles. The mouse-trap... and ewww those brownies!!! Number One is always good.
Have a lovely weekend, hugs
I love the auntie postcards though never seen them over here. Bet you're looking forward to the holiday especially as it should be fairly quiet at this time of the year unless the children are on holiday. We have a half term here sometime in February so we always check that before we go away. Your kitty is a beauty. Have a good weekend. Hugs Angela xXx
Well done on all your walking etc. You certainly keep yourself fit.
I always smile when I see another 'Naughty Aunties' card. They are such fun.
I hope you enjoy your holiday. That is an area I haven't been to, so it will be interesting to see what you think of it.
I smiled at the funnies - chocolate brownies!!
And I can identify with the reaching adulthood one.I do not sleep particularly well, depending on how itchy my skin is, but it is getting harder each day to get out of bed in the morning. Kate x
I love the Aunties post cards. A holiday booked? How lovely…what will you do with your fur baby? Love the funnies.
