so far so good

I know its far too early to be smug about doing another blog entry but I am just a little bit :) I should be catching up on the ironing and as the heating hasn't come on - goodness only knows why I was hoping it would warm me up. However as usual I have been waylaid by blogs and stuff you know how it is..... Anyway after Saturdays exercise Doug and I then went and did a London walk on Sunday - we walked around 6 miles from Old Street roundabout through to Highbury, it was lovely. We have a great book that tells us whats what as we walk. We walked by Regents Canal and by gorgeous house boats. We walked through some beautiful mews passed by and popped in  some fab cafe/galleries all hidden away from the main roads. Have to say I am aching today but hey it'll go off - fingers crossed.


I have a LO to share one I did for the lovely sketch from Sketchy Thursdays 

Pretty Maids all in a Row

ahhhhh a little me as a bridesmaid

I even remembered to cut the background paper to less than 12 x 12 so the date tab would fit into my album :)

Why do Weekends fly by?

another weekend has whizzed by - they seem to go so quickly and yet the week days are so slow :( We also managed to go to the cinema - 2nd time in a many weeks first The Kings Speech BRILLIANT and the The Next Three Days a Russell Crowe film good but not as good as the KS. I spent Saturday looking at Next Home - trying to decide whether to re do the lounge or not? and Sunday was spent cropping at the shop FAB except Monday came round all to soon

This are a couple of my LO’s for Sketchy Thursdays I LOVED this sketch

What is so Funny

and for Twisted Sketches 86

So Cute Butter Wouldn’t Melt

Milkshake or Sundae

I am just about to start on a scrappy day today with Mum and Margaret - have a few things planned but not actually started on anything yet. Think that is mainly because I am hooked on my book - Russell Brands My Booky Wook 2 - an acquired taste and one which I acquired reading the 1st one. So any spare time I am reading. That is why this LO for Sketchy Thursdays has taken days.......

Nob Hill Chill 

(a reference to the drink not to Doug although the boys would disagree!!!)

 Can’t wait to get back there - its the most AMAZING drink EVER - I did get a little and I mean a little!!!

Sad Monday

its official - Today is apparently the saddest Monday - its must be right as Ken Bruce (radio DJ)  told me. To be honest not sure its actually any different to any other Monday but what do I know. I do know however the weekend was FAB and it was down to these lovely ladies Steph, Lis, and Nicky 

One of the sketches I managed was this from Sketchy Thursdays I flipped the sketch

 Beautiful Christmas Candles

Will share some more laters as I am cropping twice more this week and really need to prepare for them

So after such a fab Saturday we followed it with a great Sunday mainly chilling and a trip to the cinema to see The Kings Speech - I know it has rave reviews but wasn’t sure it was my cup of tea - have to say I LOVED IT and am ashamed to say I never knew anything of the story and it is a GREAT story
