Hiya! Back up on the chair again! Time for another giveaway. Just got back from visiting my parents. Set Dad up on his bike. Left him studying the instructions on the various programmes! And Mium, she who’s always at my side when we do the Open Days is doing fine. She was sorry they’ve been shelved this year; she loves chatting away to everybody. Every year since we started the Open Days, we always say afterwards, “we’ll never be able…
Hi There! Good to have your company again on this bright and beautiful Saturday morning. Day 2 of our Open Day Happy Days Clarity Day! I asked lovely Jilly Clifton to step up a Happy Card for today, and she sure did! Jilly has used the smaller of the two sets, and it looks delightful in this size too. So glad you like this brand new doodle stamp and Groovi plate! This one reminds me of the really early days…
Hiya Well the room has filled up now, and there is a wonderful, happy buzz. Buzz?? What am I saying?!? More like a lively chattering and laughing and giggling ! Here are some pics of when we were in the Crowborough Community Centre, back in 2018. Ah yes. Those were happy days. That was about a fortnight before we got married! So we got Ruth Dalton’s clever sister to make us all exquisite wedding cup cakes. They were fantastic. Now…
Hiya! Back up on the chair at the Open Days, all set for another giveaway… Can anybody remember what the first thing is I usually say, to grab your attention? So let’s see.

Hi there Happy friday! In fact Happy Day – Clarity Day! Sitting here, looking out of my SHAC-Shack window, waiting to go live on Facebook and finish our lovely Humming bird postcard, and am thinking about what we should e doing today. Dave wrote a great blog on Wednesday on Clarity Matters, about where we should be and where we are. Today, we should be scurrying around the huge lovely hall in Ditton, welcoming our Clarity guests to our Open…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Just got in from Clarity Towers. Been busy getting ready to welcome you to our virtual Clarity Open Days tomorrow. It won’t be the same, I know. But it is what it is. There’ll be projects and demos and all sorts of great sales and offers and giveaways. So just come along and join in. We will have some fun… Anyway. Today in the SHAC-Shack we spoke about a wonderful woman Maya Angelou –…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Today I want to talk about Practice. I can only speak for myself, but as we move through month 3 of our daily doodling and colouring sessions in the SHAC-Shack, my drawing is improving, as is my colouring. It really is. You may not notice, because you only ever see my finished effort. So let me expound: I’m arriving at the same place, but much faster and with greater ease! I think it has…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. A little while ago, I decided to curb my swearing, because I felt it fuelled negative thoughts and anger. I felt that using angry language just made me angrier. How am I doing? Some and some. Some days there are no f***s; other days there are more than I would like to admit. Today I read about the 5th black man found hanged in the States, and I am fucking wild. So let me…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Felt the need to immerse myself in a little artwork when I got in from work. To be frank, it’s pretty gutty at the moment, so an hour of down time before bedtime is just what the doctor ordered. That, and a cup of ginger with lemon and honey. Nothing too tricky. Just a couple of nice stamps on some Shenandoah Designer card. After I had planted the delicate seedheads, I wished I had…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Sunday. A day off before Monday… Spent the morning with my parents. Had planned on taking Dad’s birthday present over to him. Remember the static bike he wished for? The one which was delivered during our doodle session on Wednesday? So Dave decided to read the destructions and assemble it PRIOR to taking it over to Dads. Good job he did! The part which attaches the saddle to the bike was missing! In the…
