Good afternoon. I’ve spent most of the day retaking some photos so I’ve now got loads of editing to do.

I have managed to list a new item though :slightly_smiling_face:

Afternoon all,
Congrats on all those sales, one for me too please Max @MaxPringJewellery although no notification emails have come through from Folksy it is on my dashboard and Stripe email came in as usual.

My daughter got up and out in time for her bus, miracle. Unfortunately her day finished earlier than predicted and she has a 3 hour wait for a bus to get home again, no book , no company and no data on her phone, she will be grumpy when she gets in. :tired_face: but hopefully will now be more prepared for such eventualities when term starts!

Thanks Max for another month of tally keeping, you are such a star. :star2:

Good luck with the packing and moving @LuckyBugHandmade
Hope your dad isn’t too jarred from his tumble Roz @OrchardFelts

Hi everyone. Just briefly popping in from Cape Verde. Sue @BeadstormJewellery, you asked for photos but we only ventured out of the amazing hotel for the first time today! We’re on the island of Sal, and Santa Maria (nearest village/small town) is a complete building site as tourism is just starting to take off here. The beach, however, is idyllic. I’ve briefly skimmed posts and tried to take in some news but there was so much (WiFi is a bit sporadic!).
Sue @SueTrevor, I hope your son is recovering now.
Here’s a pic of the beach at Santa Maria. I’ll try and pop in now and then (WiFi allowing).

ThankYou for your kind words, love & hugs…It is a wrench, but they’re full of optimistic adventure…
We had a ceilidh (Barn dance) to play for a wedding last night which was a welcome distraction!

My son’s college bus & bus passes were the bane of my life! Deborah @DeborahJonesJewellery
Will miss your posts Sasha @SashaGarrett …see you in November
Great to see your son playing Sue @suetrevor …would love to hear him. Tis thrilling to witness the current cohort of talented young players.
Excited to see your new Xmas range Sarah @thedotterypotter …glad you got some ZZZZZZZs
Thanks for curating the Tally & Feed again Max @MaxPringJewellery

With all the accordion talk, I guess should join in & say…Mr SmallP is a superb Melodeon tuner & restorer, he also reconfigures the insides to create incredible specialist setups - & does so for some notable players - instruments to & fro all over the planet… I live in a melodeon/accordion workshop!!! with a Small Print Room as an adjunct :wink: - there’s no escape….not even in a Folksy forum…:joy: …(might’ve even squeezed one m’self)

I’ve given myself a heck of a block to cut :roll_eyes: …I may be some time…

Loved & pinned…see you in September!

Good afternoon all, yay happy dancing for sales Sarah, Brenda, Pauline, Sally and Deborah whoop for pay day :wink: :dancer:

See you soon Sasha @SashaGarrett hope things pick up here for you as well, we’ll miss you whilst your gone
Roz @OrchardFelts hope you Dad is okay now
Pauline @PollysWares138, I can sympathise, a side effect of low iron levels is painful cramps, they are getting better and I only get themoccasionally now but boy to they hurt!
Sue @BeadstormJewellery, you did very well there for one day. I didn’t actually make anything to bring home with me, the tutor is lovely and she let me make some stock for her shop so I didn’t have to pay for materials and it helped her out as she had a busy fair coming up :slight_smile:
Sue @SueTrevor, it’s lovely to see children growing up interested in musical instruments. I dabbled with the violin in school but didn’t progress beyond the basics, I was more into cooking, sewing and painting, daugher played piano for a while but then lost interest in favour of sewing and art and son stuck with it and still plays drums and guitar
wow Helen @PocketfulCreations looks fabulous

After a mammoth catch, up all loved and pinned to here. Didn’t make it on here yesterday as we had the Grandchildren for the day, and by the time we’d dropped them home and got back home ourselves I just wanted to sit and relax.
Today we’ve been visiting my Brother-in-law, I think I mentioned before that he was in residential care with early onset dementia… well, his condition has deteriorated. Two weeks ago he developed problems with swallowing, which has worsened to the extent that he can no longer swallow at all, not even liquids. It’s just a matter of time now…

Just a re-list I’m afraid

Good Evening everyone :slight_smile:

Sorry to hear about your BIL Linda @wildrosedesigns - it’s such an incredibly cruel disease. Sending you lots of love xx

Were any of your sales for handpainted cards today Brenda @teabreaks? I did a little promotion of your cards on my Facebook page today x

9 sales to report this evening Max @MaxPringJewellery - I posted a little teaser of my Christmas items and photographed my paw print decorations from last year on the Christmas tree and that’s what all my orders were for!

Ellie @EllyRowbothamPrintmaker how exciting to have a melodeon and accordion workshop in your home. Do you play one too? I wonder if my son knows of Mr SmallP, and in fact if your paths have crossed as you seem to go to the same events! He’s not always played with Bogarts breakfast, he was with way of the weird, bakanalia and someone else I believe. Bogarts breakfast really push his accordion playing though, he really enjoys it, he can only join in with one group now he’s at university.
Sorry to hear about your BIL Linda, @wildrosedesigns an awfully cruel disease to happen to anyone, and awful to watch our loved ones battle with it.
Helen, your holiday looks idyllic, what a shame the WiFi is sporadic.
Deborah, @DeborahJonesJewellery I know your daughter will be fine. One day my daughter got stranded in the middle of nowhere when the coach driver decided he wasn’t going any further in the snow. She knocked on a strangers door, and a girl her age took her in and kept her warm until the buses were running again.
There are fireworks going off across the way as I write! Beautiful, it can’t be for the university students, they don’t return until October!
