First though, the desk - taken this morning at about 8.00.
This is after all why we are here and Julia welcomes anyone with desk to show - you don't even have to pitch up each week(although you probably will - it's addictive once you start
Just after the 'Official' photo - can't possibly reveal what Julia said!!! |
LLJ having a moment!!! I think Julia has named all these lovely folk on her crop blogpost! As you may know it was Zo's 40th birthday last week - we all signed her card! |
Red, white and blue - Shaz(silverwolf), me, Zo(craftygashead) |
Lunch is served - a wonderful choice of delicious food, Debbie(Tatteredrocks) and Maggie(Silvercrafter) have just got theirs from Julia and Jan |
We all had a great time - lots of chat, some crafting, coffee, cake (couldn't resist Fiona's Lemon cake)- then came the packing up!
Hettie, Zo and Lisa |
Dolores(Cardarian and Mary-Anne(Scrappystickyinkymess) didn't want to go |
…and now the shots I know you will love….Helen(Stamping by H) packing up her stuff!!
It did all go back in too - although I've never seen a suitcase with quite so much in it!!!
I was lucky enough, as you will see in pics on LLJ's, Helen's and Julia's blogs, to work between Cindy and Helen!
So, that's it….I will be hoping to swap ATCs next week but will be starting pack for our long holiday! I'll try to show you the ATCs I got at the crop too!!
Thanks for looking, Chris

It was good to see Helen smiling. She really DOES pack a lot in the suitcase, doesn't she!
Whatever Julia said, it must have been a doozie, because everyone was laughing.
So glad you had fun at the crop, and I saw how your hubby helped with the dishes. He's a keeper, I would say!
Thanks for the visit. Happy WOYWW from #1.
I've really enjoyed seeing the crop from someone else's perspective! Great photos that really capture the fun and friendliness of the day :-)
I visited your pics of your weekend on the other post too...what a gorgeous place to live!!!
Hugs, LLJ 15 xxx
What a great day! And what a great weekend (I looked at your earlier post)! How nice that you could make a mini holiday out of it. I did enjoy seeing all the pics from the crop day. A fabulous get together :)

LOL! Yep, I totally hung in there till the last possible second :) Lovely to see you but it was all too short a time. I never got to say how much I loved your journal page - those fishes made me smile. I did ATCs a while back all with a bit of a fishy theme. I love underwater colours and totally disagree with that whole "blue and green should never be seen" malarky! Add in B&W and it's a magic combo.
See you next year!
Happy pre-anniversary WOYWW!

I'm now home from a full on 11 hour day with the munchkins....we'e been everywhere and done everything today so I'm just a little tired lol I'm now nipping around the blogs while I can keep the eyes open.
So lovely to get a sneaky peep at the non posed pics Chris ;-)
Hugs,

crumbs I don't remember you taking those pictures!! good job you were on that side of me or you'd have had all my gappy teeth on show...
Your desk today does look a bit like "push it back and pile it up out of the way" (I should know, although of course I don't have a proper desk!) Thank you for being so kind about sitting next to me, glad you enjoyed it as much as I did!! Helen 7 (don't the girls and I will be doing the next Port Sunny, Glasgow is on the cards...)
I think you had a fun time, Chris!. I look forward to seeing the ATC's.
Hugs, Mar
Do you know, I have no recollection of what I said, but my word, didn't I get a lot of attention!!
your WOYWW 6 monster is well placed, he's got a great view! Adam super impressed at the ten minute card...that sort of thing gives me instant block!
Looks as if a lot of fun was had by all! Great photos!!
Your desk reminds me of Kerplunk!? Dunno why! LOL.
Don't remember you taking pics with moi in there. Love how Fergus has got in on so many pics...withut me trying 😆
Hugs

That's a huge haul of goodies on your desk, I love having a look at everyone's stash.
