Back Home

Hello Everyone, we are back from our caravanning to the Cotswolds. It has been a lovely few days the weather was really kind to us and the sun shone and shone. The picture shows one of the lakes that Tony fished from there were five and we were right in the midddle of them, it was so quiet the only things you could hear were the birds singing it truly was a little piece of paradise. I will post more pictures some of them are of Oxford, I had never been there, it is a lovely city, very busy and the university buildings are beautiful. When you start to look around England is a beautiful place.

Off Caravanning Again

Hi Everybody, we are off in the caravan again until Saturday, we are going to the Cotswolds a really lovely part of the country. I am taking lots of books and sewing and Tony is looking forward to a few days fishing. The weather looks set fair for a few days I will take photo's and post when I get back. See you soon.

The Last few flowers

These Marigolds have given us so much pleasure this year I have filled lots of pots with them and they have been a continuous splash of colour all summer but, they are just beginning to look a little tired. The Penstemon are still giving little pockets of colour and I have white phlox which smell wonderful but I am afraid it will soon be time to pull out and cut back ready for the winter. I really do not like the cold and I do not look forward to it but, I love winter nights when I can stay at home and cuddle up with a good book or some sewing, with the curtains drawn and a cup of Hot chocolate what could be better.

All Ladies

This little sign is so important for all ladies, good work is being done to find ways to help but more is needed. I am sewing like mad at the moment for this charity and that is why I have not posted much lately. I will try to rectify this next week.

Awards

The post before this one is a friendship award, kindly passed onto me by beedeebabee, the rules are I must pass on this award to six other blogs who must attach the following text when they award it to someone. So here goes, I have so many lovely friends that I find this quite difficult. The text you must attach is as follows:-

This award is bestowed on the blogs that are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propogated. Please give more attention to these writers, deliver this award to six bloggers, who must choose six more and include this cleverly written text.

The Finished Product

This is the bag I mentioned below, I made the outside shell but did not know how to line and add handles so my lovely Kathleen helped me.
