    My goodness me, that really is a wonderful, old-fashioned sweet shop! So many different sorts. So pleased that the weather was good for your day out with your friend. It makes such a difference.

    What great memories of yesterday. Thank you Anne for a wonderful day out and your knowledge of Oxford. This shop was really something very special. I hope one day I will get the chance to take you around one of our French villages. Have a good week and take care. Diane

    How could you go into a store like this and not gain 5 pounds just looking at all these tempting delights? Were you good?

    I hate it that you always have so much trouble when you visit my blog. I have tried to find a way to contact someone to see what the issue could be, but I can't seem to get very far. Make it over when you can.

    Greeting from the also sunny (today at least) Northern Germany!

    What a cute, quaint old fashioned sweet shop! I would be very, very dangerous in there!

    I love it when the sun is shining and its a bit nippy. I can just imagine how nice a stroll around Oxford with a friend would be!

    This looks amazing! I'm glad, I'm not glad, I'm glad, I'm not glad we don't have one close by. What a feast for the eyes - wonderful photographs :) XOL

    England has some of the finest shops. i noticed some Italian sweets called Sassolini (or pebbles). I wonder what they were?

    I love these sweet shops around London too-the colors, the smells, and yes, the delicious tastes. So many choices-how do you ever decide?

    Oh yum! There's a shop exactly like that in Greenwich - and I have to make sure I don't go inside, far too dangerous! ;-) Glad you're well and enjoying the sunshine.

    Have a great week and don't worry about not commenting enough, I think everybody can appreciate just how much we all have to do :-) xo
