Carmen and I find yet another way to do afternoon tea, A luxury Boat trip.
20 years younger than most on the boat, but with one thing in common.  That being the love of afternoon tea.

I'll give it 8 out 10 (needs a few tweaks) All round an enjoyable way to spend a day and night.  Also putting this trip up there with the Orient Express.

Another Christmas/birthday gift combined, and I would recommend it.

All activities very enjoyable, you have to save but its all extremely worth it!







Vague



Fourth canvas in my returning home dark compilation of feelings, if this where Star Wars it would be the Dark side art the type Darth Vader would have had in his board room. This time I'm using the letters in  different way, actually stitching them to the canvas.







Fly catchers (hanging stripes)

Not sure of the correct title but this is my very own crochet version of the type of door hanging that where a very big in the 80's.  I need them for my art space as I find the door closed claustrophobic, yet if I don't hang the strips I get bumble bee after bumble bee flying in.  A Buzzing fly does nothing for your concentration.......

I brought the cheap plastic type, well really the only type I could find and they basically break every time I hand them.  So I'm working on my own version.
