The Reading and Powder room

 Here are some more pictures, taken inside the Royal Automobile Club.
Through a doorway we came into the Reading Room which made my heart flutter a little faster. 
I imagine being back in bygone days when everyone dressed up in their finery and came here for some peace and quite,  to catch up on their reading.
I loved all the old books behind the glass... you could just imagine the old musty smell, that  only you get with age.
 
 The sandblasted glass window to the Ladies room, where you could go and powder your nose.



Along all the corridors of this magnificent old building, were the loveliest old photographs.
This one, I thought was really sweet with the precious little children and looked like one of the very first ways of getting from A to B.

I am looking forward to visiting you,  and thanks to new followers and  for the kind visits from you.
My husband and I spent most of Saturday stripping off the wallpaper and we only have one more wall to go!  

Happy week, dear friends
Hugs Carolyn
