A GREAT DAY WITH MEGANNE, PAULINE (NONNA57) ME AND MY MUM (PAT)

Thanks girls for a wonderful day at the Penrith Doll, Bear and Craft fair. Meg spent all her money - Mum got lots of bargains. I spent money wisely and Pauline got some lovely goodies! Alll in all a wonderful day and look what appeared in our picture! We weren't allowed to take him home though - he is a NSW fireman!!! Thanks for your hospitality Pauline and to Meg for driving us down there. We left home at 7.15 and I got home at 7.00pm! Love and blessings to you all Chris

Chris, as ever thanks for the pictures. Looks like you had a brilliant time. Will we see pictures of your goodies in projects over the coming months. I have my own fireman - my son in law so you can keep yours in NSW

My goodness what a wonderful set of smiles - it is so great to see you all having such a super time. I am not sure how or why you got the fireman for any length of time - but that is totally wrong that you didn't get to take him home with you. Hehehe! Thanks for sharing your visit with us and especially the pictures of all of you together enjoying yourselves. HUGS!

The D,B&C fair was held at the Firehouse Museum at Penrith so the firemen had a typical Sausage Sizzle BarBQ going, and we were all laughing and being Aussie boisterous and when we asked some ladies to take a photo of all of us we didn't even know he had come up behind us to get in the picture.

come up behind us to get in the picture.
Once we saw the picture we realised why everyone around us was laughing so much. He was a real larrikin and a great sport.

Oh my - I love it - isn't that a great story? Hehehe! You all really must have been surprised.

What a wonderful day we all had, I can't remember the last time I enjoyed a day out so much.
Chris, your Mum is a real hoot, I'm so glad she came with us, and between the two of you, the trip down and back seemed only like minutes rather than hours, I haven't laughed so much in ages.

And seeing Polly for the first time in months was just brilliant! I'm looking forward to the day When Ray is finally living up here and he can mind his Mum while I take a day off, on a more regular basis.
It will be so much easier to get away then. :-)

Now to the goodies I bought, well Guipure daisy lace and Guipure lace edging. Gorgeous, no, ABSOLUTELY gorgeous long beaded edgings, (some to trim my Tiffany lamp and some for a doll's skirt, and still more to trim my going green Hessian shopping bags). I also bought some Rose Essential Oil, home made Fig Jam, a Christmas gift (for a friend) that I just couldn't resist, even if it is brown. Then I bought a beautiful, rose trimmed, porcelain revolving music stand, to put a doll on when I knit the beaded skirt for it. That's it for me, I ran out of money. LOL!!!!

Chris' Mum, Pat, bought me a hand made mobile phone case with a gorgeous Tabby cat on it that is almost the dead spit of my Tidgy girl, I'll cherish it always it is so lovely.

If I get time tomorrow I'll take some photo's to show.
Thank you all for such a lovely day, we'll definitely do this again. Hugs and love, Meg
