Well, I don’t know what happened to last week; I must have blinked! Also, apologies for those of you that wanted to comment on #610. I really don’t know what happened. As far as my website is concerned, that blog doesn’t even exist! Not a picture of my desk this week. Instead, I have a […]

Well, it’s a bit grim here in Llandudno this morning, but looking around everyone’s blogs will certainly cheer me up. I’ve been doing a bit of crafting this week with some of my new SU stash. The first pic is some cards I made on Saturday. I made enough to hand out to those folk […]

I started ‘tidying up’ yesterday in my craft room, not that you’d know! And I found a card kit that I’d got with a magazine in January 2020. Decided to make up the cards using some scraps and three of my Stampin’ Up! punches. I’ll probably give them to our local hospice to sell. This […]

Well, I haven’t written anything since August!! I managed to open my little B&B for a few weeks before everything shut down again. Hopefully, I’ll be able to open again come Easter. Here in North Wales we had a local lockdown for 3 weeks when we couldn’t leave our own county of Conwy, immediately followed […]

Well, I managed to miss last week as I was busy cleaning in readiness for my first B&B guests since March. The dining room was filthy! Kevin had taken it over with his model railway layout during lockdown so he’d been sanding and drilling, and re-wiring. You won’t believe how many little bits of solder […]

So I managed to lose a week somewhere! Oh, well… Last Friday was an interesting day for me. I’ve been a member of Gareth Malone’s Great Bitish Home Chorus since the beginning of lockdown and on Friday the CD that we’d recorded was released and, because we’d all pre-ordered it, it went to number 1 […]

Another week and ‘normality’ seems to be returning. Kevin and I went out on Sunday and there were lots of people about. Haven’t seen so many for months! The cable cars were running and the pier was very busy. Lots of people walking on the Great Orme and around it on Marine Drive. Our friends, […]

I meant to thank you all for the lovely comments on my ‘art gallery’ hall the other week, but forgot. I’ve never thought of it as an art gallery – I feel quite posh now! I haven’t done anything with the slate yet. I’ve got an engraving tool, but I’ve obviously put it somewhere ‘safe’ […]

Well, I was going to have a week off as I haven’t done much this week. Then I heard a lot of noise round the back of the house and discovered that some neighbours have finally had the roofers arrive to replace their roof. I’d chatted to Katie a couple of days ago as I’d […]

Still nothing to show on my desk; I’m still painting! I’m using a slightly different paint as I couldn’t source the one I used previously and this one needs 16-24 hours between coats rather than the 6 hours of the old one. It’s also a bit stinky! It’s supposed to be low odour, but it’s […]
