It's all about me

Was a bit late for my wreath-making workshop this afternoon because I stopped to let a seagull cross the road.

After being part of the catering team on duty at church yesterday for the funeral I had a Me Day today. A lovely walk over Mumbles Hill with my cousin, Rhian, stopping off en route for my belated birthday North Pole at Fortes. If you recall it had featured in my birthday celebration plan only to find Fortes closed. I made up for it today.

It was the main reason I suggested Mumbles Hill for a walk.

Then this afternoon it was the wreath-making workshop. About twenty women who'd never made a wreath before, we all came away with something resembling a wreath.


The teachers showing us how.

Early on in the proceedings.

The end result.

Someone or several someones has been very busy, making postbox toppers.

That North Pole dessert looks so decadent! And your wreath turned out fabulous! I like the post box toppers too -- adds a really cheery, seasonal note!

The wreath is very attractive. Our post-box topper team has stopped toppering, sadly.It is lovely to see them.

I don't know if I should be more impressed with your ice cream or your wreath.

I love the walk designed to just happen to go near the icecream destination. Your wreath is very nice. I particularly like the orange motif.

You can't beat a 'me day', can't remember the last time I had one. I'm loving the wreaths.

What is in that dessert it looks very festive? The wreaths are fabulous!!!
Post box toppers are interesting. No one steals them? And the postal service doesn't mind?
You made me laugh with the seagull crossing the road.

All you needed was your first sentence. That was enough. 😀
