Amberley Museum

I've had a rather splendid couple of weekends... so I shall start you off at the beginning and end at the end (being the marvellous Goodwood Revival... post coming up!)

So... Two weekends ago on a Sunny Sunday 'im indoors and I went to Amberley Museum... if you love vintage stuff you have to go, it's the size of a little village, full of old buses (Chris is a bit of a classic bus fetishist, I like old buses and trains, he lurves them!) there's little steam train, and a room full of old radios (which made me a bit over excited, I have always wanted a sunburst '40s mahogany wireless). This place is truly special, and as Sussex is a gorgeous county even the drive down from Londinium was wonderful. Here are some snaps for you to peruse at leisure...

A view of all the luverly old buses they have, many of which we got to have a drive on... I tell you, vintage bus seats are soo much more comfy!

Practising my acting skills pretending to wait for a bus, I love the colours in this shot
Skirt Ebay, cardi H&M, blouse vintage '30s from Ebay, shoes Office, belt Mum's from the '70s.
Fed up expression models own!

This doesn't show the whole building, but it was a 1930s roadside caf, complete with eyebrow window... why can't all Little Chef's look like this?

Oh my!

First off, I LOVE your outfit (your chap looks so dapper as well). Next: love the details of this museum (what a radio!)
