Hi there Thanks for popping in. On Friday evening, during our Moment of Clarity LIVE Craftalong on Youtube / Facebook LIVE, I rolled the brayer off onto a few little scraps. If you watched you may recall, I was telling you all about the misty Scottish highlands that I could see in the little scrap… So I thought I’d play the film right through to the end, so you too could see what I see! Simple step by step coming…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. I’m in the middle of listening to a novel on Audible at the moment. It‘s entitled ‘The Favoured Child’ by Philippa Gregory. It’s the sequel to Wideacre, a story about the Lacey family – Beatrice in particular. The sequel skips a generation and picks up with another Lady Lacey: Julia. Anyway, it’s easy listening, well narrated and very well written, so it keeps me company when I’m driving back and forth to mum’s house,…

Happy Easter friends! I hope you have a pleasant weekend planned with friends and family. We‘re here, although Dave and Paul are using the empty office time to move some big equipment from one factory to the other. I did ask if I could help, but the answer was “not really”. So I‘ll be chief cook and bottle washer instead. Look what came through the letterbox here this week…the official invitation! Thanks to several of you lovely people, who went…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Hope you’ve enjoyed your Sunday? I thought I’d do a photo step up the SHAC art I started on TV last week, using a set of those Floral Panel Stamps…the Tulip.

Stamps and Groovi Plates all available HERE See you bright and early in the SHAC at 10am tomorrow….
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Just a quickie from Ward 21 Rm 21. Have had blood tests, X-rays and ultrasounds. Now we wait for the verdict. Does she get to go home tomorrow or does she get to hang out here a little longer? Or – and here we are really putting our positive pants on – does she get to go home today?? We shall have to wait and see… Quote of the day? it is never the…
Hi there Thanks for popping in, and thanks for all your love and good energy. It means more than you can imagine to feel your strong support. Do you believe in the power of collective energy? I do. I’m getting better for sure. Quite happy to lounge around here listening to a good book . I’m listening to North & South again, by Elizabeth Gaskell, read by Juliet Stevenson. Really worthy of a second read. I know the storyline, but…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. One day at a time, things are getting so much better. Yesterday the Doctor told me that if things continue as they are, and the infection levels continue to drop, I will be able to go home Tuesday! Woohoo! Then lovely Carron came and washed my hair, so I felt much MUCH better. All in all, so so much happier. The thing about being so ill is the rush of gratitude you experience when…
