Lovely to hear from you Georgina @GeorginaCrawfordArt hope you can get back to us soon :blush:

Have a lovely trip and happy anniversary Amanda @OakLeafCrafting I’m sure it’ll be worth all the pre-trip prep.

Just enjoyed lovely fresh scones and hedgerow jelly courtesy of my son - think I might get him to take over all the cooking!

The place we are buying (fingers crossed it all goes through) is near Whitland. It is early days and house sales and purchases seem to take quite a few months nowadays! My son lives near Pontedarwe, where do you live? I would love to pop in and meet you properly once we get to Wales.

Question for the jewellery makers and bead buyers - has anyone used MrBeadShop.com or BegellyBeads.co.uk? Really struggling to find good suppliers at the moment. The couple I’ve been relying on are either way too expensive at the moment, or don’t have any of the stuff I need.

I’ve had a design day and it’s looking very much like the bulk of the next batch will be earrings. Many, many earrings. If my hands are working better tomorrow, I have around 20 pairs project bagged to sort out. Today’s thundery weather has meant I can’t grip the pliers well enough to make wire loops.

Morning all, not used them but I have heard of Mr Bead, Amanda @OakLeafCrafting I use the Curious Gem, Cookson Gold or the Manchester Bead Shop. I didn’t realise there was a bead shop in Narberth, though I haven’t been there for years we are down that way later this month and again in November so may see if I can fit in a visit to Narberth :slight_smile:

Busy morning off to have a nosey at daughters new tourer caravan then taking grandson to softplay for a couple of hours as he doesn’t want to ā€˜clean’ the new van then we are meeting in a coffee shop later :shortcake::hot_beverage: Hope you all have a nice day xx

Not been down there for years Brenda, think the last time was when we saw Moody Blues in the Brighton Centre. Used to love the Lanes.

Always went there for work courses, not sure why, could be because a large training centre just outside Brighton. Hated courses so boring and in particular hated roll play. My boss had to go on a course they were staying at the hotel on the front, the one with the posh doormen. Trouble is all inclusive and the food was nouveau cuisine, 1 piece of asparagus etc. they all went out for fish n chips after as starving. lol.

Oh my goodness Caroline @Caroleecrafts, I’m transported back to my childhood! I’m sure the second photo is on the Palace pier! Gosh I spent many an hour of my misspent youth there :joy:. I also saw ABBA the morning after they won Eurovision in 1974 celebrating outside the Brighton Dome!
