Had to take a picture of our wonderful cheerful window box which I planted up last October from very rough looking pansies from the garden!

New Brooches and Beach Pot

Today I have limited myself to working on only a few new items. The idea of less is more. I am pleased with the result. Here are the unfired items.

David Hockney - A Bigger Picture

Hockney Exhibition 2

Went to the David Hockney exhibition today with Janey and despite having to change trains twice ie 3 trains instead of 1 we got to the Royal Accademy.
We spent two and a half hours there. Really bright vivid colours - child like - Van Gogh esc but a truly amazing body of work. Then exhausted we had a light lunch in Fortneums across the road. Tea cost £5.50!!! Didn't know until the bill came!!!

Auntie June Comes to stay and gets knitting

Birthday weekend to Amsterdam

We drove to Amsterdam which took the best part of a day. We had a few problems parking and got told off by a policeman for driving in a cycle lane. The don't want cars in the city. Everyone and I mean everyone cycles everywhere. People are veryfriendly
and helpful. Amsterdam is a jolly place
And we enjoyed our visit.

More Amsterdam

Here is my new recycled hat from a quirky second hand boutique. Wonderful round cheeses.
