Particularly keen on the sock and clog look. Really uncomfortable those clogs, being wooden and tough, tough leather - so the socks must have been super.

Like you, I saw this painting and wanted to be in that room. I am rather envious of your artistic great grandfather and I love the bohemian photo. I shall now look up Oleverum!

I think it is very expensive - so I treat myself to a sniff whiff only unless truly in need of a cap in the bath. Substack can do it - have no idea how it works!! I'm having lunch with a friend soon who actually has a teeeny Vuillard - we are going to worship!

But such treats are important, aren't they? It does sound delicious.

Please add my adoration to the Vuillard and how wonderful to see one close at hand.

This was lovely. (And well do I remember the really rather stressful experiments with posting images - wish I'd considered your solution of an Olverum bath...
