Important issue

I know this doesn't effect you lovely lot but if you'd like to sign the petition, I'd be ever so grateful.

In a nutshell, as you know I live in a lovely little semi rural village and we are surrounded by many others.

There is not a lot of money around here, but a great sense of community and some lovely folk.

We have a very unusual 3 tier school system and the head of our local `academy' wants to change to a 2 tier system and take in Year 7 onwards.

Obviously this would mean a loss of our great middle schools (Ofsted rated as excellent) and little village schools like ours.

In other a words, a gentle village way of life would be scrapped to make way for profits for a 2000+ super school where 11 year olds would mix with 18 year olds.

I might be old fashioned but I don't want people to leave our villages, and a quiet, gentle way of life to be forgotten in the pursuit of money.

It's time to be militant.

If you'd like to support us, I would love it.

Thanks for reading.


love
Twiggy x

Well I"ve finally taken the plunge...................

After drooling over many blogs for months now I've decided to finally take the plunge, so here is my new dawn.
Hence the beautiful sunrise above as photographed by Mr Twiggy through our bedroom window. (I'm sure I'll be including a lot of his pics, hope he doesn't expect commision).

I love crafting and have ever since I was a little girl and spent hours playing with my mums button tin (which I've inherited) and amused my self by making dresses for my dollies - even though I'd cut their hair and given them green felt tip highlights. Punk Tiny Tears - I should have marketed this idea !!

Hope you enjoy my work as much as I've enjoyed others who are a daily inspiration to me.

I hope to share favourite blogs, books and anything and everything with you, so enough off my blithering on and watch this space...............................................
