I link to several stores in the UK and US and as of July 1, 2017 I am an affiliate member of Scrapbook.com, Amazon UK, Ellen Hutson, and (as of April 2022) The Greetery - this means that when you click on an affiliate link and go on to make a purchase I will receive a small percentage at no cost to you. Money raised through affiliate links will go straight towards my crafting fund. Finally, please note that any products marked "(r)" are retired and may no longer be available for sale online.

Sunny Sunday?

Sorta... it was a bit cloudy but still bright when we went over to Osmotherley for little bro's birthday meal at the gastro pub that is actually called The Golden Lion. I had the soft shell crab and lime mayonnaise starter followed by the lamb burger with yummy mint jelly and balsamic onions and veg - lush - no space for the shortcake stack alas... or even a Mr Whippy 99. :o(

Little bro loves his main birthday gift despite reservations at first that it's not an ipod nano which he originally wanted, but I managed to convince him that he'd never afford the nano as he has no job lined up over the summer and the parentals wouldn't swing that far for a birthday present. Either he'd be having to cough up the rest or wait until he'd cleared some bills etc. etc. and contribute to his birthday money... anyway what I managed to win him over out of the doldrums of depression with was this Samsung MP3 player - 2 GB and only £70 - add to this over 50 rave reviews on amazon, only 2 being less than 4 stars... with an average rating of 4.5 stars it fared better than the ipods... The sound quality is ace and the headphones are fab not some cheapy under-performing ones... and as the software and drivers are loaded onto my PC I am fancying one myself as I love the shuffle feature, the size (like a pack of chewing gum), and the price... also you can use it as a memory stick so if I need to bring files bigger than 250 MB home I am covered! LOL

So he has forgotten all about his ipod nano cravings and is thrilled to bits with this one - which is a real relief. :oD

Anyway, after fab meal we drove back the scenic way through Sheepwash and I managed a few snaps of the lambs and sheep... oops forgot I'd had lamb... never mind... er.... there was lots of lush greenness too!

Well Monday tomorrow, new book to be chosen and hopefully more post... mmmm the Frozen Daiquiri body splash is absolute lush - no hint of an alcohol smell as you get with sprays like this usually... I am so starting a petition - Bath & Bodyworks get your good self back over to the UK!!!
