On line at last !

Another one of Donna's lovely  designs,she entitled this one waiting !and since I've been doing just that yesterday and today ,it seems appropriate !and what have I been waiting for ?Well simply AOL to allow me to file some things onto file manager ,and then yesterday afternoon it would'nt allow me to go on line at all ,then again this afternoon ,so though I went out today with Mark and Chrissy and Chrissy's friend Dawn ,I'm later posting than I planned to be .

Maurice went back to work today ,that week went by so quickly  ,As I said we all went into Huntingdon today Dawn makes greetings cards so we went to a couple of craft shops ,to buy the bits ,for her cards .We had a lovely time brousing ,though I think Mark got a bit fed up with us ?We also did a tour of the charity shops ,where I bought a lovely ankle length skirt ,in brown ,and if anyone admires it and asks where it came from I shall tell them ,'just a little boutique I know'! I bought photo paper and a pack of A4,for the use of...We also went onto the market ,and I bought some wooden ornamental mushrooms for the garden .Hey isnt it staying lighter longer ?

Allys ,Daughter Lynn is experimenting with  graphics and much to my delight I recieved a lovely surprise last evening ,she had made me my lovely signature ,so I will say have a very good evening everyone with love from

Hi Jan,  I love looking round charity shops, there is some really good stuff to be had. Last year I bought a lovely pair of next trousers for £2.50.  Just because someone else doesn`t want it doesn`t mean nobody else does. A mate found herself a Prada handbag for £10, though I wonder if they knew what it cost when brand new.  Lynn is really clever making the lovely `Jan` tag.  I expect we`ll be seeing more of them in the future. :o)

When you mention Huntingdon it always reminds me of the Garden centre on the outskirts of the town that we would often visit when we lived in Northants.  I also liked to wander around the town and then get some shopping from Sainsburys before heading home.  Glad you had a good day and found the "little boutique"...my favourite shop too!!  Eve

They're both lovely tags Jan, oh! to be talented, I wish :)  Sounds like you had a wonderful day out, it makes up for AOL being a bit techy with files at times.  Hope it all goes smoothly now.  Rache xx
