September has sped by and today is the day I get my first full state pension.
It’s also my little sister’s birthday and she is on her way back to Oxford after
spending a week with us and Mum in the Lake District.
Obviously yet again there’s a lack of crafting going on to
show the ladies at WHAT’S ON YOUR WORKDESK WEDNESDAY.
There was a lot of fabulous crafts to see at Prom Art in Grange Over Sands
though. It runs the full length of the promenade. If you ever get up there over summer
this event is on the last Sunday of every month ending In September. It’s well worth a visit.
I may just have treated myself to this Conker coloured cord jacket
when we visited the little market town of Ulverston.
2x2 is a favourite shop of mine to pop into when we are there.
There’s lots of small independent shops, an indoor market and
nice places for a bit of lunch or a cuppa and its home to the
Laurel & Hardy museum.
We spent a lovely afternoon in Broughton with friends having
lunch and scarecrow spotting
This morning we will be packing up ready for leaving our little tin can
This morning we will be packing up ready for leaving our little tin can
in the lakes.
It’s a beautiful day. Time for breakfast and another cuppa though
before we go.
Have a good crafty week folks.
Sorry if I don’t get round to commenting, I’ll be driving you see.
Take care
Lynn

What a great time you have had. Enjoy that pension. xx Jo
ReplyDeleteThat looks a very tasty breakfast. As soon as I got news of my pension. My husband said “Great! Now I can have a new car!” Not that my pension is that high of course,more that it tipped the balance! Have a great week Angela #7
ReplyDeleteSafe travels home Lynn. Glad you have had such a good time while away. Hope you had plenty of fuel to get home. Love the new jacket. Stay safe and happy WOYWW. Sarah #3
ReplyDeleteOOh a cocker jacket. Now I like a bit of cord and that is perfect seasonal fashion that you may have treated yourself too. Jolly good I say. From your collage…what was The Queen of Bloody Everything like? It feels uncomfortably familiar as sayings go! Hope you travelled well, look forward to seeing you enjoying some more time in the tin can soon!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a fab time and don't worry about commenting
ReplyDeleteLove the jacket. Happy WOYWW Helen #2
Congratulations to your first full state pension, and a very happy birthday to your sister. How lovely that you were all able to get together in the Lake District. Loving the conker coloured cord jacket and your caravan decorations! xxx
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on joining the pension club, it is a great life. Glad you enjoyed your holiday. Ani. PS love the jacket.
ReplyDeleteYour days out always look like such fun! I feel like you could have a retirement business offering like-minded folk a "Grand Day Out" for a fee. I'd be tempted....
