One World, One Heart - A Global Event
I am participating in the One World, One Heart event. This was dreamed up by A Whimisical Bohemian, and is l believe in its third year. If you visit her blog, she has a full list of participants on her sidebar. Basically all you have to do is visit a participating blog, leave a comment and you will be entered into a draw. Some participants are offering several gifts. No catches. No gimmicks. No sales. No links. In the One World, One Heart event I am offering to one lucky winner the following two gifts... a Vintage 1960's silk scarf signed 'Richard Allan' & a Vintage 1960's Glitzy Evening Party Bag The event close on 15th February 2010 and l will announce FFF's winner then.
I just love those photos and makes me get the feel of the place just by looking.
