I would love you to meet the new member of the family...
Billy or as Holly and I call him Billy Button Nose!
We adore him....Daisy our ten year old Bichon doesn't! She really can't be doing, at her age, with a bouncy, bouncy pup, wanting to play!
He has big paw prints to fill, as we still miss our lovely Rosie girl so very much. He is a good boy though and I feel very sure having him to come to live with us was the right thing to do.~0~
My current husband and I travelled down to Cornwall last Sunday, as you probably know, for the homespun fair.
We arrived Sunday late afternoon and dashed over to Fowey.
Oh my word...what a stunning town. Historic buildings, pirates, Daphne du Maurier, teeny tiny streets and alleyways leading to the estuary...I fell in love.
Steps leading to the estuary...
An empty shop, I couldn't imagine a more perfect place than here to open a vintage/maker shop...sigh. Look at the bull's eye glass!
Narrow streets, one car wide.
Exquisite shops...
and the estuary...
~0~And onto Homespun. So good to meet up with all my bloggy friends, too many to mention. We all had such a good day. jane had the most adorable doggy on wheels for sale... he ended up going to the best home possible vintagemagpie 
Look how well he looks with one of Nicky's beautiful bears.
lizzie had a stand which was divine and so too was lizzie'sandlindas to name but a few.
I managed to inhale one slice of lemon cake that would have choked a bull....my teeth itched and I felt a bit sick after consumption... only due to it's enormity though. There it is, the monster cake on the left.
Although a fast and mad couple of days, it was memorably lovely. Thank you Jane and Christine for organising such a wonderful Fair.

Billy, (Button Nose) is so adorable, lucky you, I think he's going to get up to a great deal of mischief!
It looks as though you had a wonderful time in Cornwall,too. x
Oh wow Billy Button Nose is a beautiful little chao!
I expect there will be much chewing, cuddling, licking, peeing et al!
Glad the fair was fun , I was thinking of you all.
Love Sarah x
Oh, your new puppy is gorgeous! Wait till I show the pictures of him to my girls in the morning, you'll hear their cries and coos from there!
All your other pictures are great too, would have loved to have been there :)
Have a good week,
Donna
Hi viv - glad you had a good time in Cornwall - your new family member is sooooooooooo cute but I bet he wees and poos everywhere!!!!!!!
Your new pupster is the cutest thing ever. I'm sure you already can't imagine life without him. The homespun fair looks fantastic, pity I'm so far away. Hope you're keeping well.
Oh Billy is so, so cute! Welcome Billy! Looking forward to seeing more photos of you! Also Hen, your trip to Cornwall and the fair look like such a great time!
Oh Viv, your new baby, Billy is just to precious for words.:) I hope you are enjoying him and you Daisy adjusts.:)
Oh, I wish I could jump into your blog and come for a visit. I don't know if I have ever seen a town so quaint and magical.
And speaking of magic, what an amazing venue the Homespun Fair is. I am always amazed and am always so inspired and happy to see pictures posted. I do admit a wee bit of jealousy as well.:) *sigh* xxoo
Oh my gosh, Viv, Billy is adorable! Lovely photos too.
So glad that you had a good time at Homespun and am so sorry not to have been able to see you this time! Bfn, Lesley
What a lovely pup! He looks like a hearbreaker to me. We have two doggie family members who are getting a little long in the tooth and probably won't be with us much longer. Its hard to think ahead - even if we will adopt new members - but your little guy would be perfect for me. What wonderful addition for you....
What a sweetie he is! :)
Is he any relation to Doreen edna etc? He is just the ticket. How will you go on whjen you go to work? I want a puppy but you can;t leave them alone in the house can you?
I love Fowey too. Stayed ther en route to Scilly a few years ago. Did you go to Sams for seafood?
You do get to some great fairs. I wish I did.
Viv,
You must open that shop! And Teddy could be your mascot. He is a real sweetie.
Billy is precious!!! Can't wait to watch him growup. Cornwall looks amazing!
What some lovely photos - very cute puppy, fab shop that would be ideal for a crafty venture, I loved that push along dog and as for the display of cakes ... mmm, makes me peckish!
Your new puppy is completely adorable.
Lisa x
Aww your new pup is adorable!!
I would love a new pup but we just don't have the space for another doggy in our little house!
Fowey looks beautiful, I must have a visit there some day, i'm always looking for quaint little places to stop by for a day or 2 and that looks lovely!!
oh my goodness, he is so so adorable!!
lovely fair too x
Hi Viv
What a gorgeous fellow he is. I'm sure he'll win round Daisy in next to no time.
Glad you had a good time at Portscatho again - I'll be there in August (can't wait).

Fowey looks amazing, i am sure I went there as a child. Thank you for your blog comment - it was another amazing fair (there are so many these days) smile xx
Dear Viv, just catching up on my blog reading and I am so very happy for you! Billy Button is as cute as cute can be, (my little Ellie thinks he looks very dapper indeed!) I hope you are blessed with many happy years together. :0) Also, a belated Happy 25th wedding anniversary! (My hubby and I will be celebrating our 24th this June. Where does the time fly?)
What a little cutie - he is sooo sweet! I'm sure your older dog will eventually learn to tolerate him.
The fair looks good fun and as you say, Fowey is lovely - wish I could have gone but it's a bit far for a weekend!
Barbara
What an adorable puppy!
The Vintage Fair sounds wonderful, lucky you living near enough to visit!
AAAWWWWW my gaawd!!! Got onto your blog with a sharp intake of breath and a very long aaaawwwwwwhhh. WHAT a little cutie. Glad you took the plunge Viv there is nothing like a puppy, you wont forget your Rosie but the joy for life of this little treasure is bound to ease the pain. lots of love Jane xx PS your photos of the fair are great I did not get to take any and Ians efforts were not that great!
Love the shop, the puppy and I would have sat down and chatted with you about all three while scarfing some of the cake that made you sick. LOL....
Very nice set up at the sail...the dog for sale reminded me of Asta from the Thin Man movies...
Viv - this is my first visit to your beautiful and charming blog! I honestly don't even know how I ended up here - don't you just love it when you surf around and then end up someplace FABULOUS!
Wow - you are a very busy and very popular lady! Your creations are amazing and your pictures are just so lovely.
This is a fun place to be - wish I could visit some of your craft shows - that would be a dream come true! Thanks for sharing all that you love--
Vicki
Oh - I almost forgot - that little puppy dog is adorable!

Billie Button Nose is so very cute and I can see by the glint in his eye that he is going to be a bundle of fun and give you many years of enjoyment and love.
Debbie
Oh Viv the new puppy is gorgeous!!! I´m so happy for you all! Your old girl will get used to him, but I know what you mean.... Old Snuff is not amused when my parents bring their pup...!
And the fair pictures looks lovely! What a cake buffet! Wish I could have been there.
Apart from that it´s big sadness here in the house - we had Frasse put to sleep this morning, he had become very poorly over the weekend and we decided that his time had come. We still find it hard to cope with the thought that he´s not going to be around anymore, he was such a "present" cat and filled such a big space in our domestic life, in the best imaginable way. Luckily we have the other pets to cheer us up a bit, but still....
Give the new family member a big hug from me!

Love your little cuteness Billy Button nose!
I also chuckled at your expression ,"my current husband"!Maybe I should try introducing my hubby of nearly 24yrs that way & see if he notices!!!!Ha Ha....Its good to keep them on their toes.
I am in love with Billie too...what a cutie pie....the fair looks wonderful...wish I could have been there...hope you are well my lovely friends...love and hugs H
Hi Viv...
we leave tomorrow to go and get our sweet, precious Teddy...i am so excited i can hardly sleep...
julie will be his auntie..julie and i have been best friends for nearly 20 years...she is THE BEST ! we love julie !
i'll take lots of pictures and hi to your sweet little Billy...
sending love,
kary
What a stunning little pup! oh how I wish he had been at the homespun for me to cuddle! Lovely to see you and Mr there..looking forward to the V and H x
Really enjoyed all the fair photos and those cakes...I would have had a piece of the huge one too...lol. Those textiles look wonderful and just right to rummage through. As for your new puppy. He is gorgeousness personified. My nephew and his wife live in Lostwithiel and they took me for a visit to Fowey. It is a brilliant place.
PLEASE BRING THAT PUPPY ON SATURDAY, I have made another space in my window for him!! LOL! Oh Viv, how cute is he... my heart is melting. You lucky gal!!! See you Saturday! xxx
So cute! Have pictures of animals and I am hooked! :) Lovely blog, I think I shall return often. :)
