What are you doing today?

[Jenny]

What are you up to today?

Me? I am going to work at 7.15am to do a long list of clients hair, till about 2.30...then I am coming home to finish a couple of bears that I've been working on this week, and hopefully take a couple of pictures before it gets dark! But that bit might have to wait till tomorrow!

Hopefully I can persuade my other half to go out for a bit of dinner tonight.

Not exactly the jet-set life-style!!

So come on...what are you doing?:6044:

[Eric-Claude]

Today ......

I left home at 8 this morning. Been to have a coffee and read the news paper.

I'm not at work (9.30), reading emails, having another coffee.

Going to have a look on ebay France, Germany and England Teddy Bear chapter.

Mainwhile, first visitors would have been here .. I hope lol.

At twelve, I am going for an hair cut ..:D .

At 2 o'clock about back to the museum till 6 o'clock.

Then back home, and get ready to go dinner out. English friend invite us ... I am sure you're going to have Lamps again with pepermint saulce lolol Glad there would have good and strong red wine lol

Good day to everyone

[All Bear]

It's 9.30am and I've done no more than have some cereal and juice so far. In a minute I'm going to soak in a lovely hot bath and after that, I will have to strip the beds, fling the hoover around a bit and generally tidy up. Then my daughter will come back from her swimming lessons (she's the teacher) and we'll go to Bluewater (white knuckle ride as she's driving) to find some pretty shoes for her works' Christmas do. I'm going to look for some festive trims for my bears while I'm there too .. and maybe pop into 'The Pier' for some scented candles and perhaps nip into Boots for the Clinique lady to work her magic with foundation colours and of course spray all the pretty perfume testers and .... and .... you get the picture??

If we get back in time (and I'm not too exhausted!) my other half will take me out for dinner ... hopefully to the nice pub restaurant on the other side of town, where the food is YUMMY!! :6013:

Eric, I've never tried a lamp with peppermint sauce ... isn't it a bit crunchy?:6044:

[Judi Russell]

My daughter has come to visit for the weekend, so I am going to introduce her to the delights of Cardiff City. Take in some of the older parts, nice shops, and then to the new Cardiff Bay area, very modern. Not going near that fountain though, strange things have been happening there since 'Torchwood' arrived. If we get home without being attacked by aliens, then we are all going out for dinner tonight. ' Will someone tape X Factor for me'
Have a lovely weekend everyone. :6087:

Morning Paula xxx

""Eric, I've never tried a lamp with peppermint sauce ... isn't it a bit crunchy?""

As I said with a strong wine, it's possible to have any saulce lol even the worsest ones lolol.

How to explain how is peppermint saulce .... Well, easy, get any meat you want and eat it with a peppermint hollywood chwingum with so you will get an idea and it's not crunchy lolol

[Chowlea Bears]

I've been re-potting the tubs by my front door and the tradesman's entrance.

Just managed to finish when it started to rain - saves watering the plants in.

Now I'm going to settle down to watch rugby match on TV.

Life's a blast :rolleyes:

[shelly]

It's a really miserable day up here in Southport, rainy and windy. I think I'll light a fire and watch a film with my boys. Oh and add some whiskers to a patient rabbit.

Shelly.:rolleyes:

[Jenny]

Well I've had a really busy day including sorting out the hair of a woman who'd bleached her own hair that much it was breaking off!! Lovely!!

Now I'm off up the pub for a bar-snack and a chin-wag..and a G&T ..or three!!

Good to see you on board Yvonne.

Whatever you do, you must not worry about making pistakes, everyone else here is new too and we are working well together to understand how this very simple and user-friendly system works. So if you are unsure, just ask. You will get at least half a dozen answers to each question (all different of course!!) :6019: :6044: :6091: :confused: :rolleyes: :eek:

Oh, you mean LAMB!:D

Hi Yvonne ... glad you made your way! It's not as easy as it looks at first, but if you moan freely, there's plenty of help to get you underway. ;) And the paperclip upload makes sense ... eventually!! :o

[Jenny]

Hi Yvonne!! You made it here then!! So glad you did!!

I had a lie in this morning after 6 weeks of getting up at 4.30 am..I stayed in bed till 8am....wooooooooo!!

Oh well..better get on with the cleaning..(yuck) then the bears!!

[Eric-Claude]

Sorry Paula I made 2 mistakes ...

The first one about the speeling of the word LAMB

The second one because I had a wonderful dinner at my english friend. We haven't had Peppermint saulce and lamb either :D

They have been very behaving cooking a french meal :p .

We have finished the evening quite drunk, their french was getting as good as my english if you know what I mean lol :p

Have a good day xxx

[davistedds]

I'm finishing a bear for Penny today, or at least mostly finished, I've been waiting an age to get some Polyfill.

Hope you all have a great Sunday!! xx

[shelly]

[Lorna Evett]

Hello Yvonne

Sunday nearly over, but welcome anyway. ;)

[yvonne]

Hello Lorna....nice to meet you! :)

[Laurie]

Hi Yvonne:)

[Lorna Evett]

What did you all do today, I went to work and it was horrible, I am now watching Americas next top model, hand sewing a couple of little bears, and wishing I was 3 stone lighter!!!!!!!

TTFN

Lorna :6087:

[Jenny]

Well...yesterday I finished a bear that I was considering for the awards...but have decided I can do better (this is the trouble... I am never sure!!)...I will post him on the show and tell later.
So it's back to the drawing board for me today!!

[shelly]

I'm working, and I'm going to stuff a rabbits head.
Fortunately I have a very understansing 'boss' or should I say 'business partner' ? LOL ( I'm the boss really).:D ;)

[Judi Russell]

I have been writing copy for adverts, now my brain hurts so I am going for a ride on the beach :6020: It is very cold and sunny and it will blow a few cobwebs away, maybe I will come back in a more creative mood :rolleyes:

[shelly]

That sounds wonderful Judi !!!!!!

[All Bear]

Riding on the beach sounds wonderful! I'd like my cobwebs blown away like that too!! :6045:

I've just uploaded a new bear to my website (and also to a corner of the forum!) and been fiddling around with backgrounds and so on. I'm always frustrated by my limited website building abilities whenever I want to update things ... for example, I haven't a clue how to make snow fall over my web pages or make stars twinkle and of course, now I want to spend time finding out but should be making a little lemon coloured bear for one of my customers instead. Ho hum. S'pose I'd better get back to it ... the bear that is!! :6022:

[Judi Russell]

Now that was just what the doctor ordered, a flat out gallop along the beach. Cobwebs :eek: I am lucky that I wasn't blown off too, but it was lovley. Miles of golden sand with just a haze of gold being blown in the wind, the sea was wild with white horses racing to catch up with ours. On the horizon the cliffs of Devon looking so pretty in the setting sun, oh I think I feel a poem coming on. Best quit whitst I am ahead, but it was a perfect ride.:6024:

[shelly]

Beats Chorley !.

[Judi Russell]

Hey Shelly, I just wrote a reply to you, pressed the wrong key and bingo, it was all gone. Anyway, I was saying that I loved Chorley, made loads of friends there, still in touch with them. Lots to do and see, Astley Park, Rivington Pike. I had horses there and the children all had their first ponies there too. My son was born in Chorley Hospital and he likes to rub it in that he could play cricket for England and Rugby for Wales, some people are just plain greedy. :6034:

[shelly]

They have a big new hospital in Chorley, quite impressive, my sister lives quite near to it.
I agree there is a lot to do around here.You can easily get to the Lakes or Manchester if you want to venture out , but there's lots to do near by as well.
Oh I should work for the tourist board ! Where we live is quite rural and flat but I would much rather be surrounded by hills. Off to Southport, Christmas shopping today, and a spot of lunch with hubby.

Shelly.:6086:

[All Bear]

I'm knitting today, huddled in the lounge in front of the tv. Luverly. Nope, it's not a skive, I have to make a cardi for the little lemon bear before she gets sent off to her new mum. :6045:
