Hi Everyone
Happy weekend .. .. where has the sunshine gone?!?!? It is looking decidedly wet and dull here.
We have been back home from our London jaunt for a couple of days now (with the London kids coming back and staying with us until tomorrow). That means we will have spent a whole week together and it has been so lovely.
Blood Brothers was really good .. .. and I can report that Marti Pellow was as gorgeous as ever LOL!! But in his role as the narrator I didn't get to see that stunning smile and those cheeky twinkly eyes until the curtain call right at the end .. .. but that's OK .. .. it was well worth the wait. I wonder how long it will be before I stop singing the songs in my head?
Then on my return home there was a lovely package waiting on my doormat. The Penny Black stamp I have been looking to add to my collection for quite a while .. .. and my lovely blog buddy Eve spotted it last week on Ebay and gave me the nod (thanks Eve - what a great personal shopper you are xxx).
So here it is in use:
This used:

So pleased also that you had a lovely time in London and Marti was as gorgeous as ever - swoon!!

Hi Jules, such a bright, sweet card. Ooh! Marti Pellow. I remember going to see Wet Wet Wet at Ally Pally way back in the late 80s/early 90s. It was a fabulous place to see a concert.
Glad your wedding biz is going well. Just reward for all your hard work.
Hugs, Pauline x
