Phew! It's been a busy few days.



Last week I had to work some very long days, and the weekend I spent catching up! BUT - at least we had a lovely sunny weekend. I even managed to tempt my pins into a pair of shorts! (had to wear sunglasses at the time - the glare was quite strong!).
We have lots of blossom on our cherry trees at the moment, they are just stunning. We are in for 2 days of wind and rain, I hope we don't loose the lot!
I think the highlight of the weekend was a night out on Saturday to watch the Russian Imperial Ballet and their performance of The Nutcracker. The music, props, costumes and dancers combined to make a very memorable show.

Thanks Debbi for the advice on the doily. Mmmmm might try that. Would I use starch at the same time do you think?

Back soon,
Carole

DP was beginning to wonder if you were still stuck in the mud somewhere!! great to have you back! Love the pic of the book, I think that's probably one for me too. Ballet pics are so beautiful

Hi Carole - the ballet looks as if it would have been incredible! And yeah I reckon I would try using starch on the doily at the same time. Nothing to lose - you can always wash it out! (from she who is assuming that is the case, never having used it!)
