Double, Double Hook and Travel!

preparing for take off on board QF6 bound for Frankfurt

nanna took a break to enjoy a cuppa and a bickie (I did contemplate doing the tim tam slam but didn't want to draw even more attention to myself)

the perfect way to unwind in yet another German hotel room after a busy days site seeing

the city centre of Stuttgart

in the beautiful town of Heidelberg

on our way back to Frankfurt. The perfect way to avert one's eyes from the scary stuff happening on the autobarn.

back on another flight (made it through another checkpoint!) bound for London

need I describe this one? The sausages were on their way ...

trying to get the Queen's attention.


The Tower of London

Ah and the best bit ... meeting a kindred crocheting spirit along the Portobello Rd!
A massive "thank you" to all the entries in my naming competition. By god they made me laugh! In the end I found it too hard to pick a winner so handed it over to my beautiful friend Antonia, who picked the above title by the gorgeous Christina ! Congratulations Christina! Can't wait to send of the parcel of goodies.
Now for more creative spaces pop on by Kirsty's place ;)
Could you really make me any greener??? With envy I mean..
ReplyDeleteOh I am terribly sorry I missed out on your giveaway, the spiralling vortex of awfully busy has sucked me dry on the blogging front.
