You know, Winifred, the best thing I ever heard about an untidy house is that it makes your visitors feel better - they can go away thinking how much tidier their house is than yours! So that's why my house is always untidy!!!
From that to today's photo - at one time, Tolstoy went on a trip from Tula (where his home was) to Moscow, then Tver, then down the Volga to Samara. Of course, I had to follow it on Google maps. Do you all know that you can drag the little orange man on the map to wherever you want to go, and lo and behold! there will be photos of that very spot!!!! Simply amazing. The other night I strolled round the French village where I used to live. (No wonder my house doesn't get cleaned, I'm always so tired from my nightly travels!)
Olga, I chose this picture because the building looks old enough to have been there in Tolstoy's day, but it was all in Russian so I can't really be sure.
7pm I've been in bed all day reading and googling and have just come across this:
If I could read Russian I'd be able to tell you all about it.
