Back again at last

I figure it's about time I did something here, so here I am doing something - here.

We've been doing odds and ends with our leisure activities and making some decisions about which way to go.

Viv's trying to get going with the 'Holey Moley' group but it's been a bit overshadowed by the 'me me me' brigade who just want people to admire their martyrdom. Hopefully that'll settle down and she'll be able to enjoy the group.
In the meantime, we've had atrip to Newark to Crafty Notions where we had an excellent display of using inks, and grabbed lots of bargains in their sale. We've also booked places on a seamless vessels felting workshop for next month.
Right now we're trying to get to grips with PE-Design software for the Brother embroidery machine. All a steep learning curve.

I've written off the camera club, following several pretty bad meetings (got to keep things on the third and always mount them in 'Astra White'), so I'm now concentrating on the PSA course and discussion groups. There's much more value to be had from them - they actually want to be creative.
I've been invited to the Whitby club again, so we'll be giving them a show in the autumn.

So we've been doing bits, but still can't understand wortdegos!!

Wort Dego Indeed !!

We both like wild flowers (specially worts) and Steve used to look like a bit of a Dego (maybe still does) and it's a question we keep asking ourselves, so here we go.

It happens all the time.

Just when you think there's a free period, something crops up and your playtime has been cruelly used up for what is usually considered to be a far more worthy cause.

Meanwhile we don't get on with the creative things that make life so wortwhile.

If you've seen one hanging around, or have the answer let us know.

Whatever you do - Keep smiling
