Royal Wedding

What a happy day, never mind that we get some extra days off (apart from us people who work for ourselves!) but despite a lot of miserable people moaning about the cost, the royal family, the weather, anything they can think of, this lovely day brought a bit of happiness and colour to the general gloom of the econony, economy, and economic crisis.  And how lovely did Kate look?   Every bride has her 'Ahhhh' moment, but this was a little bit of happiness in the grey light of reality and should be enjoyed as such.

Today's Creative Effort

I always like the doorway in my home to look pretty, so the postman feels happy when he delivers our mail (!!) and the guys selling stuff we don't want don't feel so downhearted when we pour boiling oil from the upstairs window, so I always have a silk flower 'wreath' to welcome visitors...and today I made this...hours of wiring and pushing and sore fingers, I swear this is the last time I make one of these things....but I'm pleased with how it turned out.
