Hi everyone, Paul here.I hope you are all well. Strange weather in this neck of the woods! This morning we had heavy rain at Clarity Towers and now it is glorious sunshine – as Barb always say “If you don’t like the English weather, then just a wait a minute!” Anyway, I thought I would give you the heads up, just in case you didn’t know – the lovely Tina Cox will be on the new Create and Craft tomorrow…

I saw an…

So back she goes tomorrow evening, for another run at it!…
