Back ....

.... down to earth. Sigh - just back from holidays in England. We had a fantastic time. But it's all over now, sob, weep, wail!!

Would you like to see my holiday snaps?!!!!! It'll only take three hours, I promise!!

We first went to the IMM (International Mini Meeting, for those who don't know!) in Birmingham. Over 3,000 classic Minis and almost 7,000 adults and kids camping in a park over a wild and sleep-free sunny weekend. Brilliant fun.

Here's the convoy waiting to get into the site:


A tiny portion of the site:


The ONLY way to get about at festivals:

Next came the civilised part of the holidays. We rented a cottage in the Cotswolds and toured with our Swedish Mini friends. Isn't this picture postcard perfect?


This is the front door of our cottage:

And the local pub two doors down (the village had houses and a pub, no shops, no post office, just a pub!):


Now back to real life. I must say I thought I'd miss crafting but, gasp, I didn't at all. (But I did manage to google the nearest scrapbooking store and pop round for a visit!!!).
.
Normal blogging will resume soon - I just have to do the laundry, pack away the camping gear, find my mojo - and make something!!!
