Weir folk aren’t weird


There’s some funny goings on in the local village of Weir, Bacup, Lancashire up the road from us.  Decapitated bodies that all wear wellies and jeans.


Owls that don’t know they are only supposed to come 
out at night.


Trees that like to do a bit of crocheting, or as my old friend Ronnie would say “crowshiting”.  Naughty Ronnie !


I’d love to have a pom-pom border in my garden.


They’ve got the biggest snowballs I’ve ever seen



There’s lots of wildlife in Weir 


As well as a few farm animals 




One things for sure its a village full of community spirit and kind people.  
The best of them is my friend Anna who has opened her own Cafe Bar there and offers everyone the warmest of welcomes 


Well done Anna, we are so proud of you my lovely

What’s on your desk this week


Hello deskhoppers 
Im just about to glide down this elegant staircase in my vintage finery
and join my fellow diners for our evening meal.


I spent the day NOT slogging away over a craft desk but  lounging in the gardens of 
Clare House Hotel in Grange over Sands, Cumbria.  
The views beyond the gardens made me think I was in the Italian Lakes,
and the hotel itself as if  I was in an  Agatha Christie novel,  it’s so elegant.

CLARE HOUSE HOTEL LINK


It’s so beautiful I could have stayed forever.


Although we grudgingly said goodbye to the wonderful people of Clare House,
we have booked in again for later in the year.


So I guess that’s another week I’ll have an empty desk hee hee
