Still Gobsmacked

It's been a bit of a strange week for me, was just getting myself sorted after the 12 hour crop and beginning to think about the next one when this week I got a phone call.

It was Kirsty Wiseman and the news she gave me just knocked me off my feet - Cotswold Keepsakes are closing!!!!!

Just as I'd almost finished reeling from that bit of news (and I'm still in shock), she asked if there was any chance I could hold her workshops for Emily Falconbridge here - now a bucket of water is needed.

I think I went into total auto at that point, anyway the long and the short of it is that I have booked the hall for that date and the workshops are being moved to Stonehouse.

That's the good news, the bad news is that some people can't make it due to the location, but good news is that there are now other people wanting to book so hopefully she'll get the full numbers again - so if your reading this and you might be interested then contact Kirsty to see if she has any spaces.

On the home front things have been a bit up and down recently, Gary is on the verge of handing his notice in which is not a good thing. However today he has the day off and is going on a photography portraiture course. If things go well and he likes it as much as his wildlife photography we have some plans for the backroom of the shop (oh yes, say those that know the backroom).

Off on a day trip with Alanna today so the shop is shut - always said family came first and I've tried not to compromise that too much.

Right best go get the ET's (Evil Toads - nickname for the girls) ready

I'm one of the ones with my name down, and fingers crossed for a place!

Sounds exciting your plans for the backroom, hope Gary gets sorted jobwise soon in any event.
