Playing Catch-Up

On Tuesday, seeing as it was still really hot, we went to Bolam Lake which is near Belsay.

It's been years since I was last there, and Craig hadn't been at all. We took a picnic with us and ended up trecking all the way round the lake before we found somewhere to sit and eat our sandwiches. I was flipping knackered. But it was lovely to sit in the sun for an hour and just relax. On the way home we called in to the farm shop and got a few goodies.

On Friday we went to the Farmers Market in Alnwick, but didn't really buy much except for some Cumberland sausage and some strawberries. Oh and a couple of little goodies for certain people.

Today I've been to Jayne's Attic and spent a few hours working on my Saturday project, an Elizabeth Designs chart. Sorry, can't remember what it's called, but I'll try and post a picture before I go away. It's been too hot to do much stitching and I've been a bit put off since the photochart was ruined by spilt wax last weekend. However, I have been working on some more needlecases and am hoping to finish them off before Tuesday. Tonight I wrapped a few little goodies up and put into gift bags for my hostesses but they need a few more things I think. And I'm sure the ladies in question would agree with me. Even though they don't actually know what they're getting. LOL.
