Elephant on high..

Met up with Jo and Mark for breakfast in a little art cafe in Maidstone and then a short wander round the sales helping to convince Jo that she needed a pair of shoes that she'd fallen in love with..

The shopping centre there is Fremlin Walk and I noticed that there is an elephant above the clock and also this golden elephant weather vane on one of the buildings next to the gate entrance..

Never one to miss an elephant and wondering why the wonders of google reveal here

The old gate to Fremlin's Brewery has been reused as an entrance to the new shopping centrea x it is the brewery's elephant logo seen above the clock..

I then headed off for more practical purchases - new bed linen for the spare room, a mirror for the bathroom and two new bedside lamps for my room.

Have the evening taking down and putting away the Christmas decorations, the room always looks so bare afterwards but bigger, so now settling down with Sherlock :-)
