    The bag looks great Wendz, they all do! Glad you enjoyed yourself! :)

    Tete, Cinny and I all painted mugs (which were very artistic and professional looking! ;)) whilst Dinah got carried away and painted a fancy plate, 2 wine goblets (well, NIM claimed one but Dinah put in the hard work!) and Gracie was let loose on a little star after she'd chewed on it for a while. :) Who knew painting ceramics would be so fun yet so stressful?! We were so quiet as we were all concentrating so hard! :o

    Love the bag, Wendz! :D and all the others. Sounds like you had a great time!

    100% trying my hardest to look vintage for the fair. I'll be driving up with my Mum and Sister (they want in!) plus I was looking at trains and they seem tricky for a Sunday :(

    I had a lovely day too, even if it did go really quickly! Impressed with myself that I didn't just sit there going "your accents.." everyone has spent the last 4 years sounding like me!

    Off work today as I have a bit if a 24 hour bug going on (I hope!) OH bought me trashy magazines, so I'm reading them and attempting to strip the pink out of my hair!

    They all look fab Wendz - what a brill thing to do for your Hen! Was it as stressful as the ceramic painting? I was proper flushed by the end of it from all the concentration!

    Are we definitely on for the 21st July then? I've checked and I'm not racing that day :o so I'm up for it! Might make myself something to wear out of my 60s/70s bed sheet hoard... Eeeep!

    Feel better soon Cinny :(
