Bank Holiday - a time for rest and relaxation! So we went to the walled garden at Shenley on Sunday - bright and sunny and I took some more close-up flower photos, 'weeds' included!


And Monday, to South Oxhey for Sox Fest 09
which featured the South Oxhey Community Choir, the latest choir on 'The Choir' (on TV soon - they were there filming). They were excellent and very popular with the crowds!

'St Georges Day' concert in Trafalgar Square yesterday

OK, technically 2 days late, but then I wouldn't have been able to go! Many thanks to Boris (and I never thought I'd say that!) for the afternoon! - it was great!

Unfortunately missed Eliza Carthy and Jim Moray. My favourites were the Demon Barbers and Seth Lakeman (I really should have taken my camera, but didn't - too many books for my morning tutorial!) But anyway, I've found a couple of videos (top one is the Demon Barbers (Best Live Act BBC2 Radio Folk Awards 2009)) and Seth Lakeman's 'Kitty Jay' (the first on the clip) was amazing:




Enjoy!

in the garden

Well, I enjoyed the show again - loads of ideas, (and quite a bit of stuff!) came back with me! Managed to resist buying any more papers though, so at least that was something!

I've been taking a few photos in the garden today, using 'super-macro' ...

... and watching Carmen for my course so not a lot else has been done!
Must do some cards / crafts again soon!

Roll on tomorrow!

It's the 'Big Stamp & Scrapbooking Show' tomorrow at 'Ally Pally' - can't wait to be inspired (but I'll probably spend too much money!)



Just a tiny canvas and a couple of cards I've done fairly recently - I think its time to do some more rubber stamping!! Watch this space ...

Update to Flickr slideshow

In case you're looking at this via the college PCs - it may not work here! But checked last night at home and the slideshow should play - you just need to be able to access it!!

Hi everyone!


This is my first trial blog, so don't expect much at the moment - just getting a feel for it! (My photo was taken 'quite a while' ago!)
