Early tomorrow morning I’m off with my craft group to the Manor House Hotel in Okehampton like we’ve done for the previous two years. This year I’ve given it a bit more thought and am hopefully organised with ideas of the crafts I want to do. I have a picture for inspiration with creative embroidery and peel-off stickers for sand-blasting glass as well as a few photos on a USB stick in case I decide to put something on a mug, coaster or something similar. I also think I’d like to do a bit of silk painting so have been swotting up on good ideas on Google.
I’m taking my swimming costume (which rarely sees water) in case I fancy a swim. Personally I can’t see it happening as I’m a bit like a cat when it comes to water, but I’m also easily talked into things so might be persuaded if others are going. Unfortunately I don’t possess a pair of trainers but anticipate using my recently bad back (which is much better by the way) as an excuse not to take part in anything too strenuous such as badminton, but I am taking my camera so will be quite happy to wander off with it should the weather be good.
Gordon will be here and Dan has agreed to work over the weekend so I’m sure they’ll be fine. I’ll be back late on Sunday evening so will catch up with you all next week.
Have fun! You missed me by a week in Okehampton!
Oh the charity shops in Okehampton are great!
