today I took part in the Winchester Art Market,

(er, yes that is me, semi-hiding!)

I had no expectations of the day, and so I enjoyed the day, rather than fretting, which is how I used to be! It was cheap as I shared it with Kate, and so we split the costs, and had a nice time : )

It is odd doing it a bit more, I’m not trying the hard sell now, only if people seem interested, or look scared to touch, I think touching my stuff is important, unless of course you are covered in dirt!

This past week has been pretty grim, we had three days at the Tribunal in London for Edwards secondary school placement. Our witnesses and representative were amazing, and the blobs from the County were pretty poor, so we have our fingers crossed. Once it is over, we hope to get the decision in the next few days, I want to blog about it more. Mainly because I want to be able to describe the utter disgust I have for a number of people involved with this!
The other thing that amazes me over this, is the amount of money the count have to fritter away on all of this, I’d love to know how much our case and the others have cost them!

But I shall leave that for another day, and just feel positive about the day I’ve had!

don’t get excited, they aren’t listed anywhere yet, but I thought I would share the love I have for them with you!

They are ‘handbags’ (I HATE that description) and they have an adjustable strap, so they can be used on the shoulder, or across the body.

I think they are great, but I guess I should : )

Need to take some good photos, and soon, if not I will fall out of practice again!

On the school front, thanks for the kind words, though today didn’t get any better, if anyone reads my blog who works at HCC in Winchester, in the education department, I have this for you…..

get a grip, and stop moving the ruddy goalposts!

Thanks for that!

I would just to say thank you for all the people who still patiently visit the site hoping to see something new!

I have so many things going on, but one has finished for about 8 weeks, and that is Handm@de : ) Thank you to everyone who too part, and made it one of the most successful ones so far, here I am looking a plum!

Our next event is on Saturday 13th November, and more will come in time about that!

The next thing on the hit list, is work tomorrow : ) And then Edwards tribunal, which I’m looking forward to like a hole in the head : ( There are 7 children going to tribunal for the school we want for Edward……..

I want to say something positive, but all I can feel is despair at the way the County feel they can treat children and their parents in what they consider is an acceptable manner, maybe when this is all over I can really say how I feel!

Anyhow….. stuff to go into shops soon, I have stock again!!!!
