GREEN APPLE AWARDS
We were at Hampton Court Palace today to receive our Green Apple Award.
From the right: Kath our fabulous interior designer, Kate O'Mara (giving out the awards, she was in a TV programme called Howard's Way) Cath our architect.

We had some lovely strawberries and ice cream. Oh, and our trophy was an engraved plasterers trowel.

Hampton Court Palace was built in 1514, that's a long time ago. It has been used by kings and queens as well as Cardinal Wolsley who started the development of the site next to the river Thames. Read more about the history of the palace or even go and see it by following the links below,
