It's A Wednesday Freebie!
I just made it in time for a Wednesday freebie! I'm sorry it's an oldie, from waaaay back but it is a little different. More hills and grass! I've been soooo busy today I almost caught myself coming back the other way! GO HERE to get him! Good news though! That £100 fine I got for parking in the pubs car park, on my birthday treat lunch...I don't have to pay it!! Yay! Thank you for stopping by!
It's WOYWW!? #826
Happy WOYWW!? I have something on my next this week...I've been shopping.....The little Crafty Charity Shop that closed ages ago, is back, bigger and better than ever!!! The grand opening was today, and it was packed!!!
My favourite thing was this scrapbook for £2.
I also nabbed some dies..£1.50 and £3....In the top right hand corner you can see the Chicago Screws I'd taken out of the scrap book.
Then two brand new Stamping up inks jumped into my basket for £1.50...After that I visited Big George, a lovely dog I used to look after. Then, I nipped over to Christchurch to see if I could be let off that £100 parking fine, for parking in the pubs car park...and yes! Seeing I could prove I was there having a meal and not just parking and scooting off some where else. After that I nipped into The Works and bought some document wallets (5 for a £1) and a set of pattern rollers, £3. They should be fun to play with.Tuesday, 1 April 2025
Happy T for Tuesday And A Tuesday Toadstood FREEBIE too!
Happy April Fools day! Thought I was a victim of an April Fool's joke, when I received a fine for £100 for parking in the Inn's car park, where we had my Birthday treat lunch...but no, it was real! Hope I can sort that out, cos I was inside the pub having fun with family. Anyway!!! Here 's a Tuesday freebie for you...Whenever I can't think of what to draw...I draw a toadstool, or a mushroom....Go HERE to download, and don't forget to show me what you do with it... I'm also adding T stands For Tuesday (when I can link) to this post with an extra tea pot freebie, an oldie you may've missed...
Below is a mug of froffy Coffee and a chocolate biscuite, I was having a munch on, while typing out this post...Happy T Stands for Tuesday day! Pop over to AlteredBooklover to find out more!
And below is my Kombucha fruit drink, made with berries, and oolong tea(??)
I'm off out to visit Big George later, a dog I walked for many years, I shall be taking doggy treats! What do you think of my new tiles, plugs and kitchen worktop? Short and sweet this week, as the workmen are still here!! Thank you for stopping by! Happy T Tuesday!!Monday, 31 March 2025
It's Freebie Time _on a Monday!
Sorry there's not been any freebies in AGES...But the kitchen chaos continues! Over the weekend the clocks 'spung/ Forward...losing an hour, sort of, (but gaining more sun) so I should be in bed snooozzing but thought, if I can build that Butchers Bench on wheels, then, I can draw a freebie! So here it is...Dotty Dinosaur. Hope you like her- or him. GO HERE to download. The more who download the longer it stays. A Toadstool freebie with be here tomorrow...plus an extra tea pot digi...and, yet another freebie, on Wednesday...I'm on a roll...and that has nothing to do with my butchers bench! # Just as well I'm aimbidextrous! There was a lot of screws to screw in!!
It's in the hall at the moment, keeping out of the way of the 'workforce' There's a lift up flap at the back, making somewhere to have my breakfast...and do a bit of crafting too...there were spice racks and towel rails to add, but that would've made it too long...That's it for now...see you tomorrow for another freebie and T for Tuesday... Thank you for stopping by!

WHats On Your Worktop Wed--no-Friday!#825
Happy VERY Late WOYWW!? Go visit Sarah's Craft Shed to find out more!! In spite of all the chaos with the kitchen refit, I have managed to do a bit of crafting, so there is something on my craft bench... It's only cutting out, glueing and making folios with a few freebies from VectoriaDesigns. Go visit! Get email reminders. Worth it!!
The freebies, showing balloons at the top of this picture come via SevenPlaza from her Ko-fi shop, it's for the #MassMakeMarch. Another challenge I wanted to join in with this month. The other papers are VectorianDesign. The kitchen is still on going...painting, flooring...a hiden drawer to fix inside a larger drawer...and my loft ladder trapdoor won't close properly, as they didn't realise it was electric and pulled on the hatch door...ohhho-n-no no-no-no!I have started in the garden, but just haven't any, what's it called?? Motivation? Brotheration?? So, I'll show you that next week, if anything changes. Then the neighbour, at the bottom of my garden has an ovrt hanging tree, which has slowly began ripping off all the roof covering on the shed half of John's Man Cave...I texted her, but she said, 'it wasn't her tree'??!! O...K. So who's tree is it then? The man in the moon!? So I sent a picture. She said, if it was her tree she would fix it...but that was nearly two weeks ago....I know why, it's because I haven't made a contribution to her new fence yet..but quite honestly, she's asked for a lot more. If only I can find that money tree!!

Here's an old picture of my gel-plate to remind me to find a space somewhere so I can join in with Ceri the Crafters #MixedMediaMarch25 , cos it's nearly over, and I haven't even started yet! Time waits for no one...
That's it for now, someone's just texted me to go let their dogs out... me thinks they must've forgotten to ask me earlier...Have a great weekend....The clocks change here this weekend (Mother's Day too), I think. That'll be fun! Happy WOYWW!? Thank you for stopping by!
**Up Date Butchers Bench has arrived... 😕 more on that, later!

Time for T Stands for Tuesday...
....even though it's Wednesday....or was, it's not now... Happy late T day! Pop over and join Elizabeth and Bleu Beard to find out what it's all about. Kitchen workmen are still here... busying themselves with all things 'kitchenf.' There's been a few problems but I think they've sorted them out. I have a good excuse for being so late and for not getting round to seeing your posts, no electric and no internet! (and for short time, no water either!!) This morning I decided to have my boring breakfast on my new counter (covered with card to stop slashes and workmen stuff) I'm really pleased to say, after months and months and months, my local store has started restocking the Cold Press (no sugar) Fruit drinks again... and Kombcha; so I've stocked up on them. That's it for now Happy very late T Day. Thankyou for stopping buy

Here's sOme AlwAys Freebies for You
Tuesday, 18 March 2025
Happy T stands for Tuesday! And a belated St Patrick's Day!
a lot of papercups about, once containing coffee or tea...or even hot chocolate!
If I open the cupboard door at the moment, apart from workmens tools, I'd find more cups and elsewhere...the odd paint brush in a papercup... and then, there's always Cola...
Well, not much food and drink this week. My boring breakfast is near enough the same, but in the living room, as the breakfast bar has gone. In the background you can see 'some' of the kitchen stuff piled up-
and guess whose arm that is on the TV? It's Ceri The Crafter's! I hope he doesn't mind!
One last picture, apart from going shopping with Daughter, and having a birthday meal with family (forgot to take pictures) I had some company over the weekend...Lola came to stay. She loves going out in the doggy pram...Don't forget to pop over to see what BleuBeard and Elizabeth have been up to! Thank you for stopping by!
