I'm getting Christmas out of the way then I'll have a go. Did anyone manage to find some days with 48 hrs in, I could do with a few. I've just sat down after running around all day. We're off to Toms on Wed morning it's a humans holiday as I take over the cooking while I'm down they're. I'm hoping to get to the draft shop in Clacton while I'm down there.

So sorry to have been missing b...Hellooooo everyone<br />So sorry to have been missing but at the moment I could do with having 60 hours in the day never mind having 48! Plus I have not been feeling too bright and bushy tailed.<br />First of all everything today so, so, lovely, Karen your cake is amazing and as for the wreath that is unbelievable and last but not least the bauble is wonderful lots of inspiration for us all! Many thanks to Karen, Janet and Myra.<br />We are on a red flood warning here in Cockermouth, the local school has been opened as a rescue centre as the river has breached the new flood defenses, the Man Street has been evacuated which has Wordsworth House on it (where William Wordsworth was born) the whole street is flooded with over three feet of water, the hotel nearby is also flooded and staff and guests have had to be moved upstairs and it is reported that one of the main bridges in town has been washed away, so our little market town is in trouble I fear. The main problem is two rivers meet in the centre of town so we get twice the amount of water. We live on the edge of town which is up on the hill looking down onto the town, so no risk of floods for us. As a lot of the shops are on the Main Street and have had to be evacuated I really feel for the shop owners as this happened in 2009 and it was dreadful for over 12 months for them all until everything was restored.<br />At present the rain has stopped but the winds are dreadful, according to those cheery weather people more heavy rain is on the way! Anyone who knows the Lake District will know Keswick, it is flooded as their flood defenses are breached and the town is cut off with the rescue people finding it difficult to cope apparently but there are three international rescue agency teams on their way to Cumbria to help at Keswick, Kendal and Cockermouth. As always the wonderful members of the Mountain Rescue teams are helping out too.<br />I just pray there will be no loss of life, last time we lost a member of the police who was standing on a bridge stopping traffic when the bridge collapsed into the river.<br />Take care everyone in this dreadful weather.<br />Margaret xxxMargaret corgi ownerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07044940577122022288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-91051824170534131262015-12-05T21:17:58.529+00:002015-12-05T21:17:58.529+00:00Hi Lilian

Karen's hospital cake is a masterpiece. I have trouble with a sponge, let alone a creation like this. Must have led a very sheltered life. Mind you I did live in an over sized pig sty till I was 11. It seems to have hindered me somewhat. <br />Love Janet's wreath, all made out of dies, how gorgeous it looks as well. Love the shade of grey as well. Last but not least Myras baubles. Love both of them. Like Littlelamb Myra is a multi talented lady. Pat S Witneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01805104841993312589noreply@blogger.com
