I struck lucky at the local Doughty's Roadshow first thing, I got the wadding I needed (yay!) and some fun spots and some elephants for luck…
I wasn't sure what to expect, but to say there was more batik and brown than anything else is not a fib! I was the youngest in the room, bar the Doughety's chaps, by a generous 20 years, and boy can those ladies shop!
What I actually needed to buy today was elusive though; owner Jo and I ransacked the shelves at Eclectic Maker and I came away rather despondent and disheartened, but that's delving into the depths of the lowlights, so moving swiftly on.
This afternoon the Cubs went kayaking, a first for dear son, and he had a fantastic time. It was good fun to watch too…
So at least one person will be sleeping well tonight!
Right, I need to mull and alter plans and hope I get one of those middle-of-the-night revelations x
I've gotta to ask - what was the elusive item?!
ReplyDeletelovin the elephants :)
ReplyDeleteLaughing at your Doughty's experience. Your kids have such fun - makes me realize some of the things we miss living here!
ReplyDeleteThe kayaking looks fun, fabric shopping sounds a bit of a nightmare but I love those dots! Hope you get a chance to relax and not feel too pressured xx
ReplyDeleteYears since I went kayaking, looks as though they all had great fun
ReplyDeleteI've been in the pensioner shopping frenzy. They have very pointy elbows!
ReplyDeleteI've been to their stall (at quilt shows) a few times and have never found anything I want - they're either not taking the stuff I want to that particular show or I'm just really bad at shopping! (Probably a bit of both, if I'm honest!) Love the dots and elephants!
