Definitely overdid the exercise this weekend ... but enjoyed it all. Had a great walk up Ingleborough on Saturday .... only set off at 7.00pm so didn't quite make it to the top (Tom walks exceptionally slow)..... we turned round at 8.30am so we could get back before it was dark .... had a picnic .... great views, lovely deep pink sky at that time in the evening ........

Sleepover went well .... not sure that they moved from their pyjama's and the TV for 18 hours ......... but they enjoyed.

Have a couple of commissions to make over the next few weeks .... not much going on so will try and drum up more sales from my trade customers .............

Silver soldering day

Another good start today which has continued well so far ........ I had to stay at home today and work because I am 'on call' for the First Responders in my area. I have made a lot of silver jewellery which was my plan as I am doing Manchester Garden Market in 3 weeks time and I need (hopefully) lots of silver to sell. I have made a good start so I will get it ready for hallmarking now, get it back and then polish it ready to sell.

I also do photography and aim to take some images on canvasses with me to sell in Manchester as well.

Some the jewellery will go on the website as well http://www.thejewelleryroom.co.uk/

I am going to go on a long bike ride later, some fresh air would be good and also some exercise as I feel like I have a trapped nerve in my leg - its all that standing and soldering probably.

Need to do some cleaning!! and take girls to Guides later ......... will feel quite smug if I get it all done!
