wonderful things

wonderful thing no 1.

well, last night I went along to Giffords Circus at Frampton on Severn - and it was absolutely AMAZING. It’s a bit like when I got back from Orkney and wanted/actually thought I’d become a farmer - I now want to/think I am actually going to run away and be a part of the circus. Totally brilliant - some of the best bits for me were the goose (called Brian!!) who waddled his way around the stage following a cart horse which was in turn followed by a man and a boy (that really tickled me!), then there was this scary bear which at first you had a split second of thinking surely that cannot be real - then it obviously wasn’t - and then it did a very amusing dance, there was a hawk that flew right over my head - and the music throughout was incredible.

Stand out from the competition

‘In this world of similarity and mediocrity we only need to be 5% different from the compettion to stand out.’

Why not try some of the Alice Palace greetings cards - they’re very different!! The new designs to be launched at Top Drawer Autumn include a new range of fairies and the things that they love called ‘Fairy love’, more ‘Yummy things’ (cocktails, coffee, strawberries, cake, honey, cupcakes, champagne..), some more ‘Nice & wordy’ designs and some lovely new baby cards too. Below is one of the brand new greetings cards for a ‘Tiny tot’!

The one’s I’m growing at the bottom of our garden haven’t flowered yet - but I think they’ll be white (our next door neighbour Mick gave me the seeds last year which he collected on a fishing trip).
