Boxing Day Sale

By
SALE
25% off shop items
3 for 2 on all On line workshops and project sheets 

Morning everyone, I hope you had a wonderfully Festive Day yesterday with family and friends.  We were looking forward to Christmas Dinner at a fabulous local hotel but ventured into something that resembled Faulty Towers complete with two aged Spanish waiters trying to serve 120 people.  After an hour and a half we sent back our main course and asked them to  start again and serve us something that warranted the £275 we'd paid. 
Our menu was pre-booked but when we eventually got to our sweets, some 3 1/2 hours after arriving they didn't have enough left. Quelle surprise............ Can laugh about it now but it was absolutely appalling. I'm cooking again tonight ..... it really won't be hard to top the hotel cuisine we had yesterday lol! 
Its the duck race here today - so well have a quacking good time in the park 
 and It's sale day over on the website today so if you fancy grabbing yourself a festive bargain or two follow the link below. 

Enjoy your day wherever you are, thank you for calling by and look forward to catching up again soon :-) C

    Hi Clare, oh wow sorry for your experience at the hotel!!! Lordy what a laugh huh, although not funny at the time!!
    Take care, enjoy your visit!! It is freezing here, wind blowing 50 miles plus an hour, our high never did get above freezing!!! This day after Christmas was nice and relaxing though, enjoyed it and visiting with my son and fiance'.

    I had to chuckle at the thought of that sitcom - but not funny to experience when you have paid so much.
    Hope you had fun at the duck race.

    Morning Clare, I can't believe you had that appalling service at the Hotel, and for the cost it was definitely not acceptable, what a 'let down'.
    I hope your Boxing Day duck race was a success, and that the rest of your holiday goes well !!
    Lots of love from Patricia xx

    Good morning Clare. OMG! I've just seen your photograph. As you say it wouldn't be hard to better that! Do hope your Boxing Day went well and wish you well for the remainder of the holidays. Take care.

    Good heavens dear girl- I cold not for the life of me imagine even allowing this kind of presentation to be left in front of me for more than five seconds! How awful! Not even enough pride in their cuisine to wipe the debris off the rim. Peanut butter and strawberry preserves sounds great right about now. Enjoy your dinner at home. HAPPY HOLIDAYS to you and yours!
