As you can see I've even put a clean piece of mop up paper under my mats(must sort that little problem out - two mats that is, not the clean paper)Not a lot of crafting going on, we are enjoying a few days away on our own before our grandchildren break up.
I have finished my France travel journal - one page here and I will post the others later if you would like to come back.
The sunsets were taken returning from a concert of the History of British music.
The other photos are of patterns made by stained glass windows in some of the churches we visited. |
Of course the visit included a visit to The Kitten and the Goat to get some lovely supplies from Pandy - amongst them another Tando Creative set - should be fun to use with my granddaughter!
Hope to sit and visit some of you later!
Thanks for looking, Chris

When I saw the Queen's picture on my Home page (BBC) little did I know one of my fellow deskers would have seen her today! I'm short too and it can be a problem! Often it spoils theatre visits, as I do have to strain to see sometimes. How lovely that you were able to make some purchases today too. I love the patterns made by the stained glass in your journal.

Great looking desk this week. I like the layout. Congrats on seeing the queen again to day! I have been to the UK a dozen times and never had the opportunity but did get to see Di an Charles! Thanks for sharing and have a great week. Vickie #121

Glad you got to see the Queen and princess royal. Hope you enjoyed all the day - did you get to Papermill at Burneside? Is it still open to visitors?? Used to be a great place to explore.
Have a great week.

How lovely for the Queen to drop in to see you. :-)

I'm glad you dropped by so I could have a peek into your artwork, I've been very inspired, thanks for sharing, from a pear shaped magpie, have a great weekend..
'Been to see the Queen again' made it sound like she's your good friend who you visit with often. :) we feel the need to curtsey but our furry knees are too creaky! Enjoy your mini break :)
What a lovely tidy desk! And yes, I'll certainly be back to see the rest of your wonderful pages!

The real Queen! Wow, how fortunate and what a good reason for being late in posting. Now I must follow your link for a craft shop I can go to - any more up there?
Lovely pages btw.
Hugs, Neet 14 xx
Loving the look of your journal page and your desk is definitely tidy.....I bet though seeing all the wonderful supplies there on it it won't be for long. Sounds like your visit to see the Queen and day was wonderful and I hope you enjoy your time with the grandchildren. Happy WOYWW! Danie #34
OH now that is a treat getting to see the Queen by grandmother met her once when she was here in Australia, she was always so proud of that. Lovely journal pages, but that desk being all tidy, wow, wow, wow, not go ahead and mess it up again.
Happy Belated WOYWW
Nice space waiting for your creativity. Congrats on another royal viewing. One thing I'd love to be able to do. Enjoy your granddaughter! Creative Blessings! Kelly #105
I always love a clean work desk. And this one is certainly a lot cleaner than mine this week.
I was named for the Queen, but since I live in the States, I fear I'll never see her. So glad for you, though.
Speaking of short, that's me. I can't see over anyone. School children are often taller than me. So I can empathize.
I’m not sure how late LATE is, but I’m here to wish you a beLATEd WOYWW from #2.
G'day Chris
