   I caught these birdies hanging outside the Affordable Vintage Fashion Fair on Saturday in Bethnal Green. I only got there in the last half hour, but looks like great fun was had by all. Especially loved the Tea Shoppe by Lady Luck Rules OK, featuring individual tables from different decades.

   

   This would be the crafty 1970s table. You could also play tiddly winks at the 1930s table, and Make do and Mend at the 1940s table. Check out the dates for upcoming fairs in the UK - it's coming to Lincoln, Nottingham, Liverpool, Durham and York.

   I just got an email from Neal over at Present & Correct about the Easter egg hunt that's happening right now on their website. One egg will be hidden each day in the lead-up to Easter. The first person to find it wins a super-lovely bag of paper treats, with some chocolate thrown in for good measure. Too sweet!
