A sweet shop that gave out tasters.

Over half term we had a wonderful few days away. Brussels really is a great place for a city break.

Busy weekend part 2

I did manage a quick visit to Ikea on the Saturday before going on the train. We have almost finished Craigs bedroom.

On the Sunday Margaret, Anne and I went for an autumnal walk at Westonbirt Arboretum. The trees were stunning but it was marred slightly by the cost to get in. £9 seems very steep. It was probably one of their busiest days but it is so big you felt you were almost on your own.

Busy weekend

The actors

More actors

Saturday night we had murder in mind. We went on the Avon Valley Railway Murder Mystery Night for a friends birthday. The actors were brilliant. The theme was halloween and some of the costumes of the guests were awesome. Most of us went as witches as it doesn't take much make-up!!!

Craft room

Here are some photos of my craft room. It still isn't tidy but it is getting there. On the desk are some wooden cutlery holders from Ikea. Last year they were in the classroom so are looking a bit tatty. They are perfect for storing my copics with plenty of room to buy more!! I love the fact that they stack and create a little shelf and you can put them upright to store rulers etc. In some of them I have put my ribbon that is wrapped around card. You may need to click on the images to see them clearly.

He won!!! Are you wondering what I am talking about? Dales football team won a match, 2-0. The first league game in 2 years. Yay!! AND he scored a goal.

Look what I made with some of the stuff from the Newbury show.

Did you see who won the lovely blog candy in the last post? It was me. I haven't had time to do anything other than stroke it yet but I am planning a card making day tomorrow.

A couple of weekends ago, hubby and I had a few days away in beautiful Cornwall. We stayed at the same place we did on our wedding night 25 years previously. The weather was perfect and it was a very romantic time.
