A minor achievement

In an uncharacteristic burst of energy (in between Tramadol doses), Lady Bracknell's Editor has at last managed to fill the turned wood earring stand which she purchased at least six weeks ago from Ebay.

Flushed with the success of this undertaking, she subsequently proceeded to dust not only her dressing table, but also all the various jars and bottles of Thierry Mugler fragrance products which make their home thereon.

The remainder of her day has been spent mostly in recuperation from the physical effort required, but also in occasional admiration of surfaces which are generally half an inch thick in dust.

Having been given a preview of the photographs published above, Mr Larkin has asked whether they are of a shop. It would appear to Lady Bracknell that the unfortunate Mr Larkin may yet have a great deal to learn about the Editor's capacity for collecting and hoarding shiny objects.
