Random Witterings!

A couple of photos of the progress – it doesn’t look like much but it was quite a lot of work honest   I like the last one the best as you can start to see the picture forming.

Mistake corrected and design continued

End of next session

And end of today’s session!

I’m getting faster at the hooking (that just sounds wrong!) which I’m pleased about and it is very relaxing.  Will post more pics as they come

So every year, our lovely families ask what we want for christmas and every year we say “book tokens please!”.  The rest of the conversation is usually taken up by trying to get across just how much we love book tokens and they aren’t boring at all to us.  We don’t just say it because we can’t think of anything else but because we genuinely love them. I do understand they seem a little boring tho

I read…. a LOT.  That will come as no surprise to anyone who has seen our library*cough* spare room.  I think people might have nightmares about books when they have to sleep in that room

So amongst the other brilliant presents this christmas we also received some book tokens yay!  And this morning we ventured out into Nottingham and spent them.  I’m such a sad bunny that I get very excited at the prospect and there is much anticipating and feeling like a kid in a sweet shop.  I love it

So we came away with several books and I love them so much I will list them all here.  You didn’t have anything better to do did you?

Jim Butcher – Captain’s Fury
Jim Butcher – The Dresden Files – Welcome to the Jungle (Graphic Novel)
Jacqueline Carey – Kushiel’s Justice
Simon R Green – Haunting the Nightside
Simon R Green – Into the Nightside
Simon R Green – The Dark Heart of the Nightside
Sherrilyn Kenyon – Knight of Darkness
Sherrilyn Kenyon – Sword of Darkness
Karen MacInerney – On the Prowl
Kevin Smith – Tales from the Clerks (Graphic Novel)

I best get started, so much to read, so little time *grin*

A very Merry Christmas!

Santa was very good to me this year – I got Buffy and Angel comics, book tokens, some smellies, a couple of DVD boxsets, a pair of cute PJ’s amongst other things but the most amazing present I received was from Tony and I totally love them.  I opened up one box and inside were an exquisite pair of silver celtic drop earrings which were beautiful and to top that, another box contained a delicate silver celtic necklace with an amethyst gem.  I was actually speechless and may have cried a little… don’t tell anyone tho!

And yes I might have worn my pink PJ’s and the jewellery all day   So classy!

Thankyou so much Tony, I don’t know how I got so lucky to be your wife but I am happy about it every day

Fizz had a whale of a time playing with the wrapping paper and made us laugh by picking her way carefully into the middle of the pile and making herself comfortable.

Bubbles felt it was all beneath her and took up residence on one of Tony’s toolboxes.
