Happy What's on your workdesk Wednesday.
It's been a busy week, with Bristol Harbour festival last weekend and we went to Avon valley Railway, which is our local heritage railway and as members we were able to do a steam train brake van ride! All this as well as the allotment and of course the pay the bills day job too! However, check this out i actually did some crafting!!
I wanted to make a card and I was looking for certain images, when I know the recipient has it i will post a picture of it, but it was fun making it as I haven't been through some of these stamps for SO long.
totally forgot my Man Bites Dog cards though.
Oh and another thing going on in Bristol during the summer is the Gromit Unleashed Trail raising money for the Grand Appeal. I spotted a few so far but this year they are also in other areas so I think we will need to travel round a bit as i do love spotting them.
I do love spotting them.
Hope you all have a good week

happy What's on your workdesk Wednesday. finally we got rain yesterday and showers for the rest of this week. i missed last week as i was london for a few days so all this week outside of work its catching up in the allotment. so my desk is my plot!
before london we picked 2.5kg black currants and made blackcurrant vinegar. whilst we were away more ripened so I am picking more. I cut back the stalks and pick the fruit off as that saves a job of cutting them back. I will freeze these later today as I am making bags of frozen mixed fruit to add to my porridge throughout the winter.
I have also picked the last of the broadbeans (to be frozen), the start of the runner beans, salads that are almost finished (i planted them over winter) courgettes, onions,nasturtiums,potatoes and more sweet peas.
still lots to do and I will pick rhubarb, the last of the raspberries and harvest the potatoes, but for now i ran out of time!
happy days

Happy What's on your workdesk Wednesday. Apologies as I didn't make all of the desk returns last week, it was rather a hectic week, long hrs at the pay the bills job and then allotment every evening then bed early as this humidity and my Rheumatoid Arthritis is a difficult pairing! Will all sort itself out but must admit i am shattered.
My desk this week is a mess! Started the July 365 journal prep and then the carbon monoxide alarm broke so i bought a replacement and spent an evening fitting it. Sadly couldn't find one with the same screw spacing so that involved re drilling and trying to get the wall plugs etc out! Gave up and 'painted' them with my paint pens so they blend in!!! Happy with that, its working.
Forgot my 'Man bites dog' cards again the week but think there are enough headlines at the moment!
