Welcome to The Primitive Cornish Hovel. A place where I will share my love of prim, vintage, family history, many interests & everyday life. I hope to show you a glimpse of a bygone age through the history of my family & the many 'treasures' I hold dear. Mixed in with this will be snippets of life today. Do drop in again for a visit to see what is happening at 'The Hovel'. Comments are welcomed.

HAPPY NEW YEAR
*********************
As 2010 draws to a close all is well at The Hovel. I sit here with a glass of wine to welcome the New Year. I hope 2011 is a good year for us after the last two years.

I went outside earlier and my street was quite, not even a car passed my house. It was very peaceful & calming as I stood and looked at my house. Tree lights twinkling in the windows, which for the moment disquises the peeling paintwork, the overgrown garden & the building work yet to be finished.
********
I was to babysit for the grandees tonight but at the last minute my son decided to go to a children's/friends party instead. Yes I refused invites but do you know I couldn't be bothered to go out. I'm actually enjoying the night on my own (hubby's at work) with my furry family. The fire is glowing, the room is cosy & I feel content.
********
In the background I have the TV on, listening to the build-up to the New Year. I have had many New Year celebrations out on the town & at parties but tonight is special.
********
Big Ben is chiming to welcome the New Year. Goodbye 2010 & Welcome 2011
Hugs Chrissy xx
