Having enjoyed one of the laziest weekends in a long time (didn't even blog), today's 6am start was particularly brutal, and today's pin reflects that harsh reality. I choose this pin whenever I want to be a baby about something, but I'm not in a position to indulge myself. Of course, that means I could wear it every day, but I try to be judicious.This cheery little pin was given to me by Martin + Caroline to celebrate the birth of my youngest son: it's a delight in solid silver. It was designed by Anne Harvey during her stint in Mexico in the eighties, although she's since teamed up with her sister Jane. Anne's Mexico stuff is pretty interesting, ranging from the whimsical to the strikingly tribal: I placed a bid on ebay for another of her pins. Her newer stuff is a little too commercial for me, though it's still charming.

Hi Ant. Could tell on the phone that you were feeling fairly wiped out by this week's endless meetings. I suggest you ask the job applicant to join you at the coffee shop for a change of pace, more caffeine, and some movement to break up the day! See how they perform "on the go"... Love ya, C. PS Did you pack barking scary dog to keep assholes at bay? NO? Should have...
Lovely story, but I wonder what story the airport security has about you wearing a baby stroller pin. Loving the color of the shirt it's attached to. ;) ~S
Hey, I'm a cuddly guy - security LOVES me ;)
Glad you like the T-shirt colour. I'm trying to be more careful about the backgrounds now.
