Happy holidays

Well we're back at school/work now and the Summer hols have been fab, wasn't the weather just great?

We spent the last week of our Summer break in Anglesey and had the best times. 

We spent every single day in the sea, body boarding,kayaking and swimming, just as we intended.  

We made lots of lovely memories to see us through the Winter.

We also popped round to see Vicky from Anglesey Allsorts which was lovely.

Enjoy the pics, we have many stunners, especially of our fearless Twiglet who sees a HUGE wave as a challenge!! 

Action Boy!

Enjoy the pics.

Love Twiggy x

Finally as promised...........

Some photos of our lottie.

HUGE pumpkins !!

 The soil is fantastic and as you can see things have gone a bit barmy !!

Brassicas

Carrots

Beans

Peas & beans

Barmy son standing next to the sweetcorn !!

LOTS of potatoes.

Beetroot

And here's a bit of charity shop gold for you. 

We currently go through plates at an alarming rate - I put it down to not having a dishwasher and stacking them up!!

Anyhoo, we had a little jaunt to Pontefract market on Wednesday and had a look around the fab charity shops there.

On the way we saw a canoe for sale by the roadside for £20!! Mr Twigs had been after one for ages, so we stopped and bought it!!

I've been after aforementioned plates for ages, went in the Prince Of Wales Hospice Shop and got this lovely lot of flippin Denby crockery for £4.25!!

And some sundae dishes for our Angel Delight, 3 for a £1 just like my Mum's - they remind me of Sunday tea time.

  However, I forgot to take a photo of them, so will post one next time.

 Here's the bread and butter pud I've made for tonight, we are having it after our chicken with beetroot, potatoes and peas from the lottie - scrummy !!

Good things come to those who wait.

love

You'll have to take my word for it !!!

That we spent a lovely 3 days in Filey with Mr Twigs family this weekend,as I didn't take any photos - sign of a good time !!

Poor old Twiglet has been feeling off it since we returned, so I'm taking him to the docs in the morning :(

I'll blog some pics soon,as I found a bit of charity shop gold yesterday and must post some pics of our super fertile lottie !!

Righto off to dye my hair now, purple would you believe and I have to return to school in 2 week - wonder if the head teacher will send me home, I can live in hope :)

Love  Twiggy 

A Grand Day Out - Emley Show 2013

Well we had a lovely time at Emley Show on Saturday with our pals.  The weather was great and we arrived at 10.15am and didn't leave until 4pm and we didn't get to see everything!

A grand day out indeed, as you can imagine the majority of my photos are taken in the horticulture and craft sections, there were some fabulous entries, so well done to everyone who took part.

Of course me and my pal C passed judgement on all the winners and decided we should have a bash next year (I'm still miffed about coming 3rd last year :)

Anyway grab yourself a drink,get comfy and peruse the loveliness, enjoy dear readers!!

WARNING: VERY photo heavy !!

Bit of farming machinery - this fascinated our boys !!

Giant bunny !!

Gorgeous cross stitch

This didn't win a prize and we loved it !!

My fave cross stitch - came 2nd!
