Weeeelll, it's like this see .....
We decided to go to the Drs - well, PJ did and I went along for interest's sake.... you know .... doing the listening bit.
When we came out of there, Someone decided we would go into town as it was market day so off to catch the bus we went. In the market he bought the biggest cauliflower I have ever seen and a big cabbage - for the chickens of course! - and then we wandered about for a bit - The Cass envelope contains some masking ink & brushes, I just love looking round that art shop and the staff are so friendly - ending up at our favourite coffee shop. When we came out, we were right by the Tram so 'Clever' someone! suggested going to Wolverhampton and finding Domino Crafts.
Suffice to say we ended up having a lovely day and my desk bears the evidence.
I'm not going into the ins and outs, but one can't walk into a shop, bone tired, have a sit down and then leave ..... so I had a look round while himself sat and chatted. I was very careful and only bought a small amount ...... really precious stamps, some small bottles (to share with a friend), cut! price magazine, Chalk Clouds and a couple of stencils. Pretty good eh!
Then we had to find our way home.
Soooooo, it was like this ..... we left home for the Drs at 09.50hrs and returned home 19.00hrs. I shall post the full adventure on my Recollections Blog.
I won't be going to the Drs with PJ again for a very long time ..... at least until my purse recovers!!!!
Hope you all have a good week.

Hi Christine, wow, you got some great stash there. One word of warning on the little Woodware bottles- change those pins in the top for Stainless Steel ones. I bought some of these a while back, and the pins are definitely not Stainless, as they started to rust in the glue I had in mine. Have a lovely week, Hugs, Shaz #3 XxX
ReplyDeleteHi Christine, it certainly sounds like the day got better and better as it progressed; must have been tiring though. Great stash! Sarah #13

ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a good day out! I'm wondering what the Chalk Cloud blending ink is? Looks interesting.
ReplyDeleteWhat a marvellous haul, Christine! So glad you had a nice day out, even if it was tiring. You will have fun playing with all your new purchases, I am sure. Thank you for your visit and your sweet comment - yes, our kittens are really delicious - in fact, I had Ruby on my lap for a cuddle this evening and I told her so - "good enough to eat" I said! They've both been very sweet and good girls today and it's lovely having them running around the house now.
ReplyDeleteHappy belated WOYWW,

WOW super impromptu stash. I've just been to the doctors to get an appointment and then popped into the farm shop for some bird seed on the way home. Not half as exciting as your day LOL. Thanks for the visit BJ#23
