Sketches of Durban Harbour and its Surrounds
Have you heard of
Cathcart William Methven before? I've just learnt that he was an
amazing chap. These delightful sketches of Durban and its Harbour are
only one of his many achievements.
The
envelope that houses these postcard reproductions states that he was a
Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh and Engineer in Chief of the
Natal Harbour Board.

A Happy Story
A while ago, Jeanine Hays of Aphrochic asked me if I knew how she could get hold of some porcupine quill lampshades!
Soon, 2 readers came up with some suggestions. Jeanine says she now has some on order and will let me know when they arrive! How lovely to help each other out from opposite sides of the world!
The first place I thought of looking was Cecile and Boyd - a homeware store in Durban .
They did not have the lampshades we were looking for - But it is one of my most inspiring Decor Destinations.
