Like lot`s of people now I am constantly on the lookout for great and different gift ideas. Hopefully I will manage to actually give most of them as gifts instead of keeping them. So often when they arrive they are so gorgeous that I can`t bear to part with them. I will do better.
I digressed alot there. Although the Crafty Folk name is the same and many of the people are too, there are also lot`s that join in for a month or two and then stop. It`s nice to see different participants and adds greatly to the variety.
Well yesterday I had to go into the city to get my hair cut. I wanted to go early so there wouldn`t be a queue. I don`t make appointments as I just decide and then want it done immediately and I do hate waiting.
Now that reminds me of going into M&S. I got what I wanted in the food hall, went to the tills, oh dear, a queue, not too long just a few people, but still it meant waiting. I looked further along the row and another till was empty so I sailed in there and paid. As I did so I remarked that further down people were queueing, her reply really surprised me. She said that some people actually LIKE to queue. I had to bow to her greater knowledge on the subject but have to say that so far I`ve never met anyone who happily stands in a queue to pay.
I spent far too long in the city and amazingly bought some clothes, not my intention at all. Well actually I wanted a short sleeved jumper type top, but didn`t see anything that fitted the bill, but I did see several things that I liked, so i had a splurge. I was about to say that at least I didn`t buy any yarn, then memory returned. Ooops.
As usual, to see a bigger picture or a description, just click on the item to view it in the shop.
ENJOY!!!
I went to the city to buy a top
but everything I looked at was a flop.
A short sleeved jumper was all I required
no luck with that, but I was inspired
to buy a selection that caught my eye
two in particular made me sigh.
Gorgeous material and colours so rich
that I really couldn`t decide which
one to have, so I bought the two
as they were so yummy there on view.
Three things in that shop and four elsewhere
what can I say? They were sitting there.
Topped it all of with some socks too
not too many, just a pack or two.
Now I`m set up for the winter to come
although I might still need some
new jumpers all warm and cosy
maybe some to look all posy.
The rest of the day I was rushing around,
my feet barely touching the ground!!
