Oh My Giddy Aunt!!!! This is the funniest thing ever!!!! I had suggested to the ladies at work that they all have a little party and enjoy the new adventure our little company is about to embark on. It was Debby’s birthday today too, and she had already got the doughnuts, so I said, I said, have a party! Get some lemonade! I had also asked my Mum and Dad to join us, because they are on Virgin and Mum…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in today. My oh my. When will it stop raining?? Tunbridge Wells is very very wet now. Where’s the bloody dog?? But the weather is just another one of those things I have absolutely no control over. I was just in the town, and was watching 3 lads erecting some scaffolding. They were soaked to the skin. But there was an air of grim acceptance around them; they had a job to do, and they…

Hello there! Thanks for popping in today. I spent a quiet and very pleasant afternoon fiddling around in my artroom, being creative. Decided to set myself a challenge and use an old scrap to make a canvas. You’ve got to admit, it doesn’t get much scrappier than this!! Continues undeterred… Decides to wrap the A4 scrap around the A5 canvas. (Say that three times fast when you’ve had a sherry!) Got to be glued. Mod Podge is great for that….
Hello there. Thanks for popping in today! Is it as warm where you are as it is here? Best stay in the shade with a cold drink. But I had a hankering to do something different today. After all the excitement yesterday, all your lovely comments and the huge Hochanda coverage, I really needed to get grounded, Come back down to earth. So I retreated into my art room and dug out – wait for it – some Shrink Plastic !…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Friday’s blog a private peek, right? I want to share some really massive news with you before you hear it anywhere else. I value your friendship and I want you to hear it from me before the rumour mill kicks in. Any one of you who reads my daily blog will know that a change has been on the cards for a while.

Boo! Late again.What a scramble!! This has got to change !! And as for this piece of artwork, well It started out all promising and lovely, but halfway through I made a boo boo…. Read on. Ready? Stamp the Abstract Stamp onto a piece of A5 Theuva Card. Black Archival always gives you the best crispest image. Now start separating, isolating areas of the grid with Post-its. I decided to go with the Wee Folk. WEE FOLK SET 1 WEE…
Hi there. Welcome to our Mindful Wednesday group! I could do with a therapy session today! Doesn’t a day seem longer when you wake up at 3am! By lunchtime today, I felt as though I had pulled a double shift! That old washing machine head of mine started churning, decided to get everything out of the wardrobe and give it a rinse. Old stuff, new stuff. Went into spin mode, woke up ALL the sleeping trolls who live rent-free in…
Hello there. Thanks for dropping in. I am glad you did, because I have been doing a lot of thinking, and wanted to share what’s going on with you. When Dave got ill recently, I went into robot mode, or coping mode, as many of us do. Went through the motions of work, kept going, faking it to make it, etc. etc. etc. Cancelled what obligations I could, and honoured any commitments I couldn’t. A month on, Dave is feeling much…
