Just been following a tutorial by Tam over at Willowing it was good to use watercolour pastels for a change .. but I'm not sure if I should add some more layers .....always an artist's dilemma ....when to stop ....what do you think ?......x

Remember Remember dogs hate fireworks....

Yes it's that time again ....Guy Fawkes night fireworks galore ...drooling shaking dogs .....puddle on the floor.....why oh why don't they make silent fireworks? It's Sunday evening now and there are only a few going off at the moment so we have Tv and 2 radios on full blast again and washing machine on its longest cycle ..so hopefully it's over for another couple of months ......New Year's eve will be the next trial......some pics of our local fireworks we snuck out for an hour to watch them ......hope Whippet is ok today Iz.......x


Today we listened to Jim play at Joshua Tree ....nice relaxing afternoon and a great veggie roast to boot ......obviously I took my stitching ......it's nice to start getting back to normal activities ...I can't sit for very long but it is def a step in the right direction ....what did you do this weekend ?.......x

Walking and Healing ...and a few bits and bobs.....

You don't usually see a swan in the sea .........

Went for a healing seaside walk to Hill Head ....see I am upright and walking and sewing .....recovery is slow ....but sure .....!!





These little birds have an apt name .....Turnstones !!.......

Peace................
