…it has been half term this week, on Tuesday we went to Sir Harold Hillier Gardens, and I wrote all about that as Autumn Sun. Well on Thursday we went to Legoland!!!!! Yes, I can hear all the gasps of disbelief, Legoland in half term, are you mad, etc etc. But I didn’t think it […]
Today we went to Sir Harold Hillier Gardens near Romsey. We got there for lunch, and the children did behave themselves : ) Then we strolled around the garden for about 2 hours admiring both the fantastic autumn colours and the art, some of which is above, and below; There was some really nice pieces […]
Today was madness! Jackie had told me about Wingham Wool Work being at Queen Elizabeth Country Park, which is near Petersfield. Now normally on every other weekend, the boys and I go up to my parents for the day, and today was that Sunday, so I had to plan a cunning plan to squeeze everything […]
At last I’m here, and it is still Wednesday! Hurrah! As I have another craft fair on Saturday I have been working on stuff for that, but not very well, below are some of the fruits of my labour. and I also need to make some needlebooks, and I’ve made a trial run of another […]

… why is it so hard for them, children, to part with it? They are not telling lies as such, but neither will they tell the complete truth. One, or both, or maybe even the cat broke a beautiful piece of ceramic this morning, but their stories don’t tally up, and there in no explanation […]
Yes, we have returned from lovely Cornwall, and it was very very rainy! We did go to the Eden Project, haven’t been for a couple of years, so for William it really was a whole new experience, and he loved it! I hope to soon be producing some new pieces of felt based on the […]
Yesterday in a bid to stop all the screaming in our house, I took the smallest horror to a garden centre, and a supply of small lollies!
