Charles Dickens - 200 Years

Booths Well was dressed by members of Gee Cross and District Women's Institute as part of the 2012 Gee Cross Well Dressing.

"The Old Curiosity Shop" celebrates the bi-centenary of the birth of Charles Dickens.

More details on the Well Dressing with photographs of all seven wells visited this year can be viewed at Gee Cross Well Dressing 2012.

Other "C" posts can be viewed via ABC Wednesday.

With the CDPB portal still not up and running, contributions to the August 1st theme of numbers can be seen at CDPB Theme Day.

  7. How beautiful and clever - I've heard of Well Dressing but never seen any for myself. Dickens is one of my favourites too.

  8. I have never really gotten into Charles Dickens (it has taken me 23 years so far to read David Copperfield and I am still not done), but that display is stunning.

  9. I will be in Gee Cross later today, so I'll look to see if it is still there. Good to see that they didn't fall for the obvious jubilee/Olympic theme!
