Gifts!

Another day of bed building, this time going to a timber merchants for the right size piece.. we had tried avoiding it.. but sometimes it seems ya gotta buy stuff! And it works! And it solid! And comfy! With NO LUMPS! It’s a dream come true, no more blogging about building the bloody east wing we promise!!!

The whole site was busy yesterday with people working, fixing up wagons, working on vehicles and sorting through their belongings to sell at a local flea market that’s on once a month. It’s super cheap and apparently huge. We will probably miss it as we are running our Photo Booth Saturday night at a huge party  at a massive Squat.. ah well plenty of flea markets it seems!

And so to gift giving. After the 100 eggs from R, came a bag of STUFF from Mancunian Z, we sorted through it, and amongst the delights was a seriously BLING gold and ‘diamond’ key chain with a wind mill on it, tasteful! Next came Mr ‘er yes I can fix ziz’ with a box of STUFF, we sorted through it, this time numerous sunglasses were to be found! Later on UK J arrived with a bag of beautiful feathers (Cat can use them on her earrings), and people have been really great helping us get Honey Bunch fixed up, lending us their car, and giving us top local tips on markets  etc.

 But the REAL highlight was in the middle of a gathering around our al fresco dining area, complete with polka dot table cloth and candles, the arrival of a 7ft Egyptian Mummy.. called Terry.. he had been sitting in the loads, we have admired him from a far, and now he was being presented to us as a gift.. well, you can say no.. can you??!!!

HELL NO!!!!!
