Lucky Robert was given a night in The Royal Crescent hotel in Bath last night for his birthday, (booked at www.laterooms.com - excellent rates). I went too of course and it was absolutely lovely, a well needed rest. Their spa is incredible, a huge water pipe over the pool pumps hot water across your shoulders and massages them, the tubs are hot and cold...oh I could have stayed in there all day. When we came out and had drinks in the garden we looked fresh as daisies, skin all plumped and rosy and felt fantastic, I cannot recommend it enough. In the evening we met a friend and had dinner at Jamie Olivers restaurant in Milsom Place, really good atmosphere in there but Robert thinks the food is 'English Italian', not authentic enough for him but I loved my spaghetti and the olives were very good...
Its been very busy here getting ready for Vintage At Goodwood - http://www.vintageatgoodwood.com/home.aspx - I am so glad I booked the stand early as now I am hearing from other dealers that it is nearly impossible to get through on the phones and they have sold out of spaces....I am planning a beautiful layout with all my best and newest pieces, its a nice big space compared to what I have at the vintage fairs. Fingers, toes, legs and everything else crossed for good weather....the line up gets better and better - I will be roller skating in the 1970s warehouse disco and remembering my wild days in the 1980s rave tent...as well as doing some work on the stall of course.
Another project on the horizon is a Vintage Fashion and Textile Auction I am putting together with Dreweatts & Bloomsbury Auctions, taking entries from September. We already have huge lots of film costume (top secret details at the moment but will tell all asap) and a collection of early Biba and Ossie...do email me if you have anything you would like to put forward and if you would like to go on the mailing list for details of when and where.... More soon.....x love Samaya ps: a special hello to my auntie Janet!
