ANGEL SWAP 2009

I have just received an update from Helen advising that the Angel Swap for 2009 is back up and running. Here is the link if you would like to register.

A great way to meet other people and to keep in touch with other likeminded people Just press on the link for the registration form, but they close soon on 8th August 09

AWAY AGAIN

I have been away again for the past week. I took one of my daughters on a surprise holiday as she has been studying extremly hard in Uni and needed a few days R&R. The only information that she had was that we were going to Sydney for a couple of days. You can imagine the "Surprised" face when we rocked up at the Cruise terminal and I told her we were going to NZ on a cruise and were having a few days before we fly back home. She just couldnt believe it and was very grateful that I had packed her passport.

Being the ever addicted patchworker, I managed to sneak the ferry over to Devonport to visit the local patchwork shop over there Cushlas. Of course, I just had to purchase a few bits and pieces.

the deal was - she was allowed to jump the tower, if I was allowed to do the Patchwork shop - pretty good deal I thought.
