Take ME to Church?
From my earliest memories, I have loved exploring our local churches and churches – the opportunity to recreate this world in 12th scale has been impossible to resist!

That’s SO Tee Bylo!
My present 12th scale ventures include the ambitious design for yet ANOTHER church with a quaint chancel and chunky bell tower, all dressed in old stonework with fierce looking gargoyles.
Between Two Worlds?
As a child I loved to shock others with the tale that I had been abandoned at birth by gypsies and raised en famille with kindly mice in the crypt of an old church…
Ashes to Ashes!
On this first day of Lent known as Ash Wednesday, the doors to St M’s Parish Church have opened as the Rev. Suze supported by Verger Philly offer a warm welcome on a chilly and damp afternoon to some familiar faces who have chosen to wear some ‘Sorry Ashes’ on their mouse noses.
And some of those mice have chosen to hang a message of hope on the branches of our Lent Tree…
Everything IS Blooming Lovely!
As the hours tick by on St Valentine’s Day and with a visit from Missy and Millie and THOSE two felines – it’s a blooming lovely afternoon for Norma!
‘Tis STILL Veganuary!
‘It all began the morning after Burn’s Night when having discovered a missive from my Lord Byron – the maid servant Florence, (a foolish girl if ever there was!) took it upon herself to notify Cook of the contents…’
Let Them Eat Cake!
Today, on this twenty second day of January in 1815 in the Year of Our Lord – MY Lord Byron is now seven and twenty…
Taking My Leave of Number 13?
On a cold January day Lady Byron walked out of the front door of 13 Piccadilly Terrace for the last time…
A Stitch in Time?
Can I trust YOU to be discreet?
Dreary? How Indiscreet!
I REALLY must learn to hold my tongue!
Famous in MY Time?
The eyes AND ears of the Piccadilly household?
As the Poppies Blow…
Today is Armistice Day and I wind my way through my garden to the old corbel stone that is nestled among the shrubs and ferns and where my ‘Poppy Garden’ now waits…
Stirring Up More Trouble!
As the sun disappears on this All Hallows Eve – the folk from the All Hallows Hamlet are excitedly polishing shoes and dusting their finest hats as they dress to impress to celebrate the Festival of Samhain BUT not everyone wants to enjoy this special evening!
Vampyres and Werewolves? Oh My!
Tilly Simms hadn’t really enjoyed the celebrations of the festival of Día de los Muertos yesterday as she had been very troubled by the strange behaviour of a certain furry feline…
Tears for Fleurs!
After the celebration of All Hallows Eve, the first day of November is one for remembering the dearly departed with the festivals of the Mexican Day of the Dead and All Souls’ Day and with this in mind, I designed a unique teardrop tribute of flowers for display inside the design room of one of my favourite flower shops.
