@@lenorerhodes8110 it was utterly marvellous Lenore, still buzzing about it all 💖💖

[@killerkitschvintagelizzie]

What an incredible chat. You are such a great storyteller. I fully agree you need to do a podcast. And I would love reading your blog if you relaunched it. ❤❤❤

[@bobobun]

@@killerkitschvintagelizzie thanks so much Lizzie, really glad you enjoyed it 💖 I thought stupidly I’ll get so much done when I’m off in August, but you know the sun shines and places need exploring 😀💖

I watched this in bits and pieces all the while admiring your dress. It was very entertaining, especially while I probably will never visit those places. Thank you.

[@bobobun]

@@elsrij2136 so glad you enjoyed it, glad my sharing took you to places you might not get to visit. 💖

Hi Thanks for the recommendation of Matthew Dennison’s book! Been reading her own works and books about Vita Sackville West for years and never been disappointed. An amazing woman and writer. The Nicholson Diaries are so fascinating too…what an interesting marriage. Thanks so much of the shots of her writing room. Super video 👍😁.

@@pamelajarvis7728 So fascinating isn’t she. I remember reading A Portrait of a Marriage years ago too, must see if I can find a copy for a re read. I’ll look for the diaries. Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed it 💖

@@hannilaini Hello there 🤗

[@madelainebaillet7422]

Hello thank you so much for sharing your travel😊;I'm a French sewer and a huge fan of the bloomsbury group too ! You speak about a book in your vlog written by a young woman but I can't find it: can you tell me her name and the title of the book? Thank you and have a great summer!😀

[@bobobun]

@@madelainebaillet7422 Hi Madelaine, I’m not sure which one you mean, maybe it was The Life and Death of Harriet Frean by May Sinclair which I think is wonderful. Hopefully so. Enjoy your summer too 💖

What a wonderful inspirational place to go and visit. Imagine how outrageous they all were those Bohemians, back in the day. Although we still have the neo wretched puritanical brigade trying to force women into being lesser now. Thankgod I live in Australia, it's not perfect by any means but it's secular, most people are liberally minded and we have healthcare.

@@hannahv1930 I really admire how they attempted to create a world in which they were freer to live the way they wanted to. Having money clearly helped you break the rules back then though didn’t it. Much harder for the average working person. X
