It feels like ages and ages ago i last posted on here, the last 4 weeks have been all go with no stopping! In the last 3 weeks i have done NONE, thats zero, crochet or knitting and i have really really missed it, i have been doing some sewing, getting things ready for the gala, but thats about it,i have only watched 1 hour of tv in the last three weeks, i don't watch it much normally but a bit more than that, thought i did watch the referendum news last night and this morning, we voted out, but i was extremely surprised and excited that we won. I was even more surprised at the posts on facebook from people who had voted remain,it was pure anger and rants about idiots and ignorant people who have ruined the country and all doom and gloom. The way i feel is that we are each entitled to our opinions and we are lucky to live in a country where we have a vote and can exercise it either way. I won't go into why i felt the need to vote out but i will say that one thing that i have noticed today with all the ranting from the remain and the excitement from the out campaign, it seems people are very passionate about Britain which is more than i have seem in the election and that can only be a good thing for the county with a higher turnout than usual.
Now that the gala planning from this year is all done and we are just starting to throw around ideas for next year, thought i better get started on planning Mollys birthday which is a couple of weeks, she wanted a hot tub party so we have made it into a hawaiian luau with the help of pinterest and cheap decorations on ebay! i have to admit though i got seriously carried away buying things and one thing lead to another and i ended up with this for the party
A Candy Floss Maker!!!
wow,i have wanted one for years and after a couple of attempts and a quick look at a you tube video i had the knack of it. I seriously had no idea that the pink candy floss i love was just unflavored sugar, i thought it was flavored with something, i had looked on line and was going to buy the special sugar but again pinterest stepped in and told me how to flavor my own and with a cupboard full of colours and flavors,i had a lot of fun! but its packed away now and its really not good for the teeth or the was it, but is definitely lots of fun
So yesterday was Lytham Gala, which is a very long one and as Paul was driving the truck i decided to hop in and as i have not been crocheting for ages i took some along with me, to do in the truck on the way round the parade, funny though as i could here people saying look at here in the front shes knitting!
At least the weather held off! think i will do a post about gala day now and show you all the making fun i have been having x
