INDEPENDENCE DAY

Hi everyone

Happy 4 July to all of my American followers - hope you all have a great day.

Wimbledon is still continuing to surprise us - not so sure if surprised by the fact that they seem to be on time despite the weather, or that the men's semi-finals seems to be a mix of top and not so top seeds.  Makes it more interesting really as when you get top seeds, the play isn't as exciting to watch.

Do any of you have (or have had) problems with Twitter?  Up to last week, my time with them was plain sailing.  Since Wednesday my account has been hacked/compromised twice.  Yet another password change!  So hard to remember them all.  Hopefully this one will last a little longer than the last one.  I think Twitter is great on two levels: one for keeping in touch with people and two for promoting a business.  I find it much easier to use than Facebook.

I had an order for a Ruby Wedding card yesterday - plenty of time to plan it as not needed until September, but will be working on it over the next week or so.

Richard is on hols this week, so we are trying to get out and about - so far not very successfully because of the rain!  Unfortunately, the last time he took leave it rained - he is clearly putting the mockers on the weather.  What's the betting that when he returns to work next week, it will be sunny and warm?

A mini mid-week post as the forecast is that the weather is cheering up mid-day and I want to be ready with sun cream, sun-hat, deck chair, cold drinks - the whole works.


Don't forget to come back on Friday and read my guest blogger's post and I will be back on Sunday afternoon with my weekly Handmade Monday post.

  1. Oh yes, let's blame it on Richard. Send him back to work :-)

    What a pain about your Twitter account. What do they have to gain by hacking a Twitter account? It's just mischief-making!

    One good thing about having a bad leg this week - the rain and Centre Court at Wimbledon x.

    1. Going to keep very quiet about his next hols - just to keep the Weather Gods in a good mood.

  2. I agree all Richard's fault. If he goes back to work you will get more crafting done, or not!!!!

    Sorry about Twitter my account is fine, google was a bit odd and had to do a password change on that, why can these people not get a life and leave us alone.

    Enjoy the tennis.

    1. Apart from the odd strange DM on Twitter, it normally behaves, but twice in one week is very annoying.

  3. Sorry I've not been keeping up with Wimbledon but didn't want to let the side down completely so ... we had a tiny bit of sunshine late this afternoon which could only mean breaking open the Pimms! Have had a wonderful evening! but sun has gone in now! Send Richard back to work!!

  4. from what I'm hearing about your weather, it rains every day anyway. Sure wish you could send some of that our way. The excessive heat and lack of rain has killed the grass and the ground is so hard it's cracked in places.

    1. Nooo, not every day - but at the moment that seems to be very true. I hope you get some rain soon.
