Not a lot at the moment, as it is exam time for my students. Hectic to
say the least for students and teachers alike!
I am going to a craft and collector's fair in Bridlington on the Bank
Hol weekend. First time I am actively trying to sell something, but have
extended my range beyond lace bobbins. I do want to set up a simple
piece for demonstration purposes.
I have also been busy making necklces to sell, and my friend is doing a
load of cards for me.
Next month I am going on a course with Christine Springett, whilst my
husband does the turning course with her husband. We are making a long
weekend of it, staying at a local farmhouse B&B. This is probably all
the holidays we are going to get this year, as we had to fork out a lot
for a replacement car when it was written off and other items that
needed replacing as they were beyond repair.
As regards Jane's question on what did we get for our silver wedding
anniversary, which was two years ago.
Well, we were not intended to celebrate much, but my Dutch family
thought different, and came all 19 strong (including my 85 year old
mother) on the ferry to England. so we decided to have a party after
all, and in total had about 70 people around. Got some local caterers
in, who were brilliant and reasonably priced.Our son and a friend
volunteered to be bar tenders for the day. We asked people for a
"donation" to our second honeymoon fund and hubby's 60th too (which was
at the same time). We did get some useless presents, gracefully accepted
and now stored in the "forget" cupboard, but most quite freely gave us
money and we had a lovely holiday in Romenia for 12 days.
Well, must get back to work.
