Respect

Two planes landed in England today, one brought back a group of overpaid,
underachieving footballers. the other brought back seven coffins, each
with the union jack draped over them, footballers play for our country,
soldiers FIGHT for our country, footballers give ninety minutes.
...Soldiers give their lives I know who I respect ... R.I.P our boys.

Sunny day

Hello everyone,
Well it's been a beautiful day here in Norfolk, so much so I actually did some gardening, cutting out the dead from some bushes and cutting back others.
The garden is looking tidy, but the puppies have dug up some of my bulbs...naughty pups. I guess that might be the way of things for a little while!
I've received my blog candy goodies from larkygirl,  so will get around to taking a picture & load it up soon.
I'm also getting fed up with not being able to 'follow' some blogs or add them to my site because of 'technical' blips...pop up's even through my 'pop up' thingy is turned off, & error on page...it's driving me potty HELP.......................................!

WI evening

Hi everyone
I had a lovely evening at the WI on Wednesday, we were hosting an event for visiting WI groups, our speaker was a retired policeman who protected the Royal family,   I can't remember the last time I laughed so much, the funny stories he told were amazing, we could have listened to him all evening.
The food laid on by WI members was just great, they remebered they had a vegatarian amongst them this time lol
The flower arrangement went down well everyone from my group loved it, and I over heard some comments from the visiting groups one of them being "you can tell a professional arranged that"  to which I quitely smiled and went on my merry way :)
The flower arrangement was donated to the the treasurer of one of the other groups as she is seriously ill, I do hope it put a smile on her face when she received it.
All in all a great evening
Blessings

Floral arrangement

Hi guys,
I spent most of yesterday buying, conditioning and arranging  flowers, I'm a  member of the WI and we are hosting an event this evening where various members of other WI's will be visiting, other members of my group  are sorting out the food etc;   I'm not into baking etc;
So my talents were brought into call as a florist....
Here's a piccie

I hope they like it, it took me long enough to do

Well this is the first entry to my blog, so forgive me if it seems a bit topsy turvy, as I really haven't got a clue what I am doing.
I've just had a lovely relaxing weekend with my daughter who has visited from Oxford, so obviously I don't get to see her that often but it's been really great, she's been showing me all sorts of unphathomable  is there such a word things to do with blogging, isn't techonology wonderful ~ sarcastic note appearing from nowhere lol.
I am hoping to add photo's of my cards, atc's and anything else that takes my fancy as I go along my merry way, so here's to a new experience and I hope you will enjoy and join me along my new paths journey.

Here's a few cards  I made earlier lol...I've always wanted to say that :)

Righty I'm off now to look at other blogs to see what I should really be doing...
