Quality time.

My wonderful man came with me to Peterborough this time round, we even brought our bikes, of course I was here to work so today was the first chance I got to get out.

We headed over to Ferry Meadows and I have to say this is oh so beautiful.

I loved that we got out in the fresh air and some time to relax

 

These are my snazzy over the top sunglasses for when I am out on the bike, they pop right over the top of my everyday glasses.

 

Everything is Better when we're together.

Truly it is. It's so important to take time out together.

Our day had just began but we wanted to show you this wonderful place.

 

Once I had done my shows at Create and Craft we decided to go out to dinner and Dean Wilson (presenter) pointed us in the right direction to a wonderful evening.

A quaint little pub in a quaint little village.

We are both quite tall and we were conscious of the low beams.

The bar was full of delightful temptations.

 

And dinner was just scrumptious.

Oh yes I even had a sneaky half of San Miguel

The a little stroll around the village to stretch out the dinner tummy.

 

 

More to show

More to show you from yesterday's makes at Create and Craft.

A pretty little box using the Gingham and the Basal card stock.

A lazy day card or maybe a Sunday afternoon. Image by Hunkydory.

 

And a bit of scrap booking.

And a bit more.

Mam's 80th a Special Day

It was so good to get all of the family together for dinner.

Mam had a lovely afternoon and here is the picture to prove it,

Now the bag that she is holding is a vinyl print and the image I designed from a photograph of my Mam in her younger days, it was perfect to hold some craft goodies that I popped in for her.

Thanks to Inkspot photography for making the bag for me. They do them in all different colours.

Now you may of noticed the other thing that Mam is holding, there is a little story to that, whilst looking for a vase to put a bouquet of flowers in that was from her late Brothers wife she found this hand made little Calander which was made by her late friend Evelyn, what is even more interesting is that the little Calander that is attached was dated 1953 which was the year my Mam and Dad was married.

I know it was all most likely to be coincidental but it did make my Mam feel like everyone was with her for her special day.

Back at Create and Craft to Launch Pick of the Week

I'm back at Create and Craft today (Friday) and tomorrow to launch the Spellbinders Pick of the Week, around 100 products no less so you really don't want to miss these shows.

My shows today are 12:00, 15:00 and then a 2 hour show at 17:00

Tomorrow's shows are 08:00, 13:00 and 17:00

I have my feet up to stop my ankles flaring up with pains again.

They are better than they were.

Before I go to get ready for the shows I wanted to show you the soldier statue which is in my village on loan, it is so gorgeous that the village is trying to raise the funds to buy it.
