To Lands End and beyond....... well almost!!!


I never tire of this view out from Falmouth harbour (3rd deepest in the world) 
there's always lots going on 
After a really busy week, a trip to Birmingham for an MRI scan on my pesky hip, and my first Graphic 45 workshop I hopped (quite literally) into the car and headed off to Falmouth, Cornwall this morning to spend a few days with my sister by the sea....... 22 miles short of Lands End. 
There really is nothing like this part of the country, rugged, windswept and beautiful what ever the weather.  Amazingly the sun followed me down, so it looks like we're in for a nice few days. Might even hop off to the Eden Project.

  1. Hope you enjoy your trip Clare - I envy you - Cornwall is my favourite destination - and living now on an island - its not so easy for us to visit as we used to! Am loving the workshop I am taking (online) so thanks for offering the classes.

  2. Fab photos Claire - daughter is looking at Falmouth Uni as one of her options - got an open day to go to in September to have a look round - not sure I want her to go sooooo far away from home but it will be her decision once we've done the rounds.

  5. Beautiful! I'm reading a murder mystery by Tara French - it's set in Dublin - makes me want to come back for a visit and see more of the Isles; we only stayed in Dublin, our son was playing croquet!

July Giveaway and crafty Weekend in Milford Haven

Morning everyone, Happy Monday to you.  I"m home after a fabulous weekend with Cheryl, Jan and Chris, at their fabulous shop, In House Interiors in Milford Haven.  It was a full house on Friday for our Artisan Style workshop where we constructed, painted and altered pencil cases and albums.  Saturday was demo day and another full house.  Cheryl, Jan & Chris, thank you so much for hosting the event for all your hard work and your hospitality, you really did spoiled me :-)  It's been quite a while since I've travelled over the border to Wales so I was quit excited as I passed the Welcome to Wales sign and then Raglan Castle.

Saw my first Dragon too :-)   After a journey that took me across the middle of the country and th...
