Day 20 - One day I popped up to Dad's and....

.....he'd just finished making this and I thought you'd like it ... hope you do! That was the little clue on the back of the label. I had no idea. I then remembered Lesley's dad does a spot of wood turning and then I was excited. I ripped it open and this is what I found:
Isn't it fabulous. It is so smooth and tactile. Can't stop rubbing it. This is soooo going to go in my dining room. Thank Lesley's dad (and Lesley!), I love it.
I was doing some colouring in last night. Here is my workspace (the dining table cos it was cold in the cabin!):
This is a pic of my efforts:
I love my copics !!
Been visiting today, delivering chrissy pressies. Popped in to deliver some to Linda and stayed for a cuppa. Our other halves got into the swing and they sounded just like two grumpy old men. It was funny. Then popped over to Upper Beeding to visit Ron's mum. Stayed for another cuppa. Decided we had better go home as it was getting cold and we still had to get to Woodingdean via the Falmer Road which is very exposed and gets iced up quite quickly. We nearly didn't make it on the way to Linda's as cars were turning round but we decided to go to the brow of the hill to see if it was an accident in which case we would turn back but the reason for the "go very slow" was because cars and vans were trying to get up the hill and the ones going down weren't going anywhere until they made it !!!! We waited for a van but it didn't make it and just slid right back down again, turned round and went the other way!! While it was struggling and slipping back down a 4 x 4 discovery type car drove past us (quite fast considering) and overtook the bloke in the van. Smug 4 x 4 driver..............
Right best do some more making a mess before I upset anymore 4 x 4 drivers (I know - you're not all like that but this one had such a smug look on his face that I could have smacked it!).
Thanks for popping by.
