~*~ Soaked to the Skin ~*~

First of all, Happy Birthday for tomorrow Dawn!!! See you Friday.
I had a bloke from the insurance company around this morning to look at the damage from the flood.


After he left, I went into Hexham shopping and got caught in the most torrential rain, I was literally soaked to the skin, I couldnt risk sheltering till it went off cos I was afraid the house would be flooded again!

The trip out was worth it though as I found a brilliant book, I had seen it on the Prints Charming website (Australian) but hadnt got around to sending away for it and there it was in my local Waterstones. I had just been grumbling to one of the girls about the amount of stock they had allocated to crafts and then found this little gem!! Its about craft bloggers their inspiration,projects and workspaces. What do the rest of you think ?>>

Verity is in a spin, 'The Slaley Show' schedule arrived this morning and she wants to enter just about everything; The prettiest hen ,photography, baking etc, etc. I apparently am entering numerous patchwork and knitting classes, watch this space. We had a bit of a tragedy in the hen dept. at the weekend, one of the bantam chicks strayed into the cattle sheds and fell into a water trough and drowned. Then there was 6.......
Verity and I then rearranged all the hen accomodation and put all the bantams out of harm's way

Hi Helen, thanks for your message. Isn't the book fab? I saw it on another blogger's blog and bought it a few months ago - it went everywhere with me for surreptitious reading sessions (when picking the children up from school or "watching" their swimming lessons etc)! I need to thread the children's needles as they are sewing pictures for their teachers so I'd better go before they start shouting at me to hurry up! Lucy
