The Market that was postponed - here's a photo of my spot which was up for about 30mins before it was decided in the interests of safety for all to postpone it - the wind on Sunday just caused havoc all over Durban.

I guess it does however mean I can make a few more items for the table before the next one - on the 1st of September 2024 - First Day of Spring.

At the WGHS Indoor Flea Market today, it's rainy outside but we're fabulous and dry inside the auditorium. All you need to do it carry a brolly for the walk from the car into the doors.

Here are the details of the Christmas Craft Fair - see you there!! One more sleep... Come on down to Northwood Crusaders Sports Club for a day full of fun rides for the children, over 130 different stalls for Christmas shopping, yummy food and a visit from Santa at 12:30. We will also have SANBS there, so come donate much-needed blood especially now for the holiday season. As Annie’s Busy Beez is turning 20 in January, we want to collect 200 pints of blood. Let’s support this drive. Hope to see some old school friends there tomorrow. Let's have a G&T!

Stunning day for a market! See you at the Family Fayre Market today, ooh so many lovely things and live music, lots of food and drink stalls also!

Look what Woolworths did!!! Look!!!

Disappointed they didn't call it the Good Things tree to honour all the Good Things readers who made the original post go viral but happy they listened to the suggestion.

When I told SPAR about this idea, they immediately rolled it out into 60 stores around the country. Seems Woolies have decided to finally join the revolution... after MONTHS trying to tell us to "remember our bags".

This bag tree, my friends, is such a GOOD thing!

"Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do."

Pebbly, peacock picot edge scarf - Aug2022 Just finished this absolutely gorgeous scarf. I loved the colour blend from this yarn but just couldn't decide for ages on what to make with it, I think the long gentle blend of colours on a nice textured, warm scarf that can be worn by anyone was the right decision.

I am so impressed with The Courier Guy's Services I sent an order off from their Warehouse Office in Westmead Pinetown through to a Customer in Grahamstown (Makhanda) Eastern Cape via road freight. Wednesday I dropped it off at their office, it was delivered today (Friday) this morning and cost me just R120! I am ready to accept orders for out-of-town for courier yeah!

Had made this as a gift for a great friend's daughter's Hen's Party (wow so many apostrophes I wasn't sure which to make possessive eventually).
