So where are we now, hopefully being able to wind down a little.
I have now finished with the Christmas fairs not such a roaring success but each one better than the one before and what's more they have paid for the enormous vet bill I had for my darling cat.
So what is on my desk this morning - well no material for once only Christmas cards, which must be in the post by tomorrow. Thankfully I made lots of cards last year so will definitely have enough. Just the boring inners to do.
A friend of mine has been on a cruise, Hong Kong, Singapore etc and saw this card and thought of me. No way would I have the patience or the know all to do this. It even folds down perfectly.
Last night I went to my first religious carol service for years, and thoroughly enjoyed it unfortunately no pics but I am sure Kate (mamapez5.blogspot.com) will have some on her page on Friday smiles.
Last Wednesday was our Dames in Spain carol concert and fair, all the hard work in the preparation paid off and the comments were all favourable.

Lovely little Christmas cards and the folding ship is spectacular! I'm sure there's a way of doing it and once you know how it looks less enigmatic, but still impressive! Looks like you had fun with the Christmas fair. Hope the kitty is doing well! Best wishes, zsuzsa #16
