This is a lovely bit of fabric a bought at a local charity sale.. is'nt it lush !

I've been watching the Giro d'Italia, poor sods cycling miles and miles in the cold pouring rain - weather has been filthy! We only had 1 really wet day in Tuscany, so I think we got off lightly here

Its been sunny, cloudy, warm and cold here. Tomorrow I have my interview for a post in Thurrock .. wish me luck.

Tony is in Scotland on him motorbike, so I expect we should all wish him luck too.

I've just been sent the details of the funeral of a young freind (not very close, but a lovely lad). He was a diver, had Asbergers, and was killed in a motorbike RTA. Such an unneccessary waste, and so very sad for his family, partner & close freinds. Sad for all who knew him, but different for them.
