Me on Monday

Waving to blog friends on a very overcast Monday.

It was a weekend full of treats and surprises, I felt thoroughly spoilt and loved and I am still smiling even after ‘the supermarket shop’.
It was a not getting up kind of Sunday and a going out for a special treat on Saturday kind of weekend.

A thinking about my mother and all my friends who are mothers kind of weekend.
A very dear lady with the same name as me passed away this weekend, so thoughts of her kind of weekend. My M-i-L has lived next to her for 50 years. That’s a long time to be neighbours…

A flower arranging kind of weekend, looking for vases, cutting and sealing stems and taking a few pictures kind of weekend.
A no cooking weekend and best of all a surprise visit from Ben.

My Saturday treat was a Fish and Chip supper aboard The Matthew in Bristol.

I made this collage with Collage It for Mac

The Matthew is a representation of the 15th Century caravel which took John Cabot with his crew of 18 from Bristol to Newfoundland in 1497. The Matthew was launched in 1996 during The Festival of the Sea in Bristol. We were there to see it with a very unhappy seven year old Ben…I had forgotten that until just this moment.

Me on Monday is Sian’s idea, thank you Sian.

  1. Your sea photos just lift my soul – I can almost smell the salty air and hear the seagulls from here in this lovely collage. And how nice to have a surprise visit …

  2. I’m smiling..very often I come along after Alexa and I read what she has said and I think I couldn’t possibly have said it better myself. I’ve lost count now of the times I’ve said..what she said! I’m glad you had a lovely weekend ..here’s to a good week ahead.
