No More Bank Holidays!

So thats it for another year, no more bank holidays. Where do they go to?

I guess it wasn’t a normal one, my Girlfriend has been involved with the Hampshire Artists Open Studio, so she was working over the weekend as her studio was open.

We did manage to get out yesterday though and visited a few of the studios involved. With each one we visited, we found the standard got better and better and it was very interesting to visit other artists and photographers to see what they were up to. There were some very impressive ones and impressive studios!

As usual though, the weekend was over too quickly and we find ourselves back at work and back into the normal routine. Nevermind, soon I’ve got some time off and managing to go away! At least its a short week!

New Milestones

Last month I hit a milestone with my Coaster Designs. With the introduction of the new poppy designs I hit the 500 designs marker. Wow! 500 different photo coaster designs, thats a lot of keep track of!


See more flowers designs here

Last night when updating the mouse mat pages and adding a whole new page, I also realised that I now have 100 mouse mat designs too!

These are a couple of the new ones.

I’m sure there are many more to follow! Now for the next 500 coasters!

Planning, planning and more planning

What with planning parties, visiting places, planning for wedding fayres and planning holidays, it has been a busy time, and craft items and website updates have just gone out the window. In fact I spent most of my birthday planning and booking the holiday, but it was good and was sorted! Great!!

As I’ve also been designing a new website for Wedding Photography, this website and blog seem to have taken a back seat.

However, I have recently added some photos to the galleries from the Festival of Speed, cars section, but still want to the poppy photos to the main gallery.

Over the weekend I did manage to update a couple of the coaster pages for the flowers. These had’t been touched in about 2 years!

So watch this space for information on the Wedding Fayre event (7th Sept) and for some holiday photos! Looking forward to the break as I haven’t been abroad in 3.5 years!

Another Month, Another Year Older!

Were does the year go to?  Time just flies by!

Yet another month has gone and I heard on the radio this morning that we are half way through summer already!  Only seems like we’ve had a few days of it too.

At least the weekend, or at least Saturday was good, as I had a few days of work and it was nice to see a bit of sun, instead of just seeing it through the office window!

Its seems ages since I last took any photos, and hope to get out soon, I think the last time was Goodwood, and that was nearly a month ago too!  Mind you, I’m still printing images from my trip to the Isle of Wight in May, but at least I have printed most the stuff in between.
