Decorating, gardening and lots of shopping for the house. I am settling in, in my new job. I've been planning the shop for a while and need to start making many lovely items for a November update. I have to fit this in whilst decorating! I bought a new rose yesterday. It has the most lovely scent and is bright red as you can see from the picture above. I adore roses because of their scent. yummy! A lot of gardening has been going on here.

Without them I would be totally horrified. The BNP (British National Party) has been working hard in the area and country. They have managed to get three (I believe) candidates in the Wrexham area to stand at the elections in May. Saturday 12th April saw a group of theirs come up from South Wales stirring up anger and hatred. Anger on my part at disgust for their stupid and nonsensical views. Anger from them shouting disgusting things at others.<br /><br />You see at the response to their presence many local people and organisations decided to hold an anti BNP march! Hooorrrayyy for sense. Trade groups and socialist groups under various flags and banners and also peace groups all got together with a band thumping away strode through our town with pride and solidarity to show these people we do not want them here. People who don't hold the same political views and some who don't even like each other all stood together to let the town and the BNP know that racism and fascism has no place in Wrexham. What made me laugh as they marched past was the fact that my own mummy was smack bang in the middle of the march closely followed by my big brother <a href="http://niallallen.deviantart.com/gallery/">Niall</a> who was running all over taking photos of the whole thing. I unfortunately was working but they came past and I cheered them on! I did try to catch up with them on my lunch break but it had finished and a rally at the local Miners Institute club ensued.<br /><br />I was so glad that people came together to do this. I didn't know about it until twenty minutes before as I happened to call my mum. Still around 300 people were there! So well done folks lets not let these idiots invade our homes and town. We need foreign workers to maintain companies and the NHS.

Well we can definitely say we took no prisoners! No one was left sober! Just about standing though! It was Charlie's little sisters 18th birthday so there was a big gang out. I went out with my gang and caught up with them later as the security at the FAT CAT wouldn't let in the little sis cos she had no ID! They missed out on some money! They all drink loads of pricey cocktails!

I am always on the look out but haven't found anything yet!<br /><br />I found your camera reminds me of my mums story. Her friend of many many years was diagnosed as terminally ill. Their close group of frineds decided that they would go out for a meal and a drink in our town (Wrexham). This really was a farewell dinner I suppose. Well they had a great night out apparently, doing what you do. Memory lane, laughs and booze. My mum took her camera as she wanted remember everyone there along with her friend. Too many drinks later (I am sure!) The camera was left on the table. Yes you guessed it. It was stolen. My mum was really upset later. I think she thought it was in her bag. She still thinks about that night and gets upset inside as she would loved to have had those photos. I hope the thief got pleasure as my mum certainly didn't. Well done scuzz bag. xxx<br /><br />I love the messages from <a href="http://postsecret.blogspot.com/">PostSecret</a>. It is a place where the most heart felt sadness can be encouraged to be spoken about if not to friends or family but there to strangers. It really is amazing. It sends out positivity in a dark place. Something I need to focus on at the moment as work is really getting me down. I need to really find my calling and make a living from it. xxxxxxxxx</span>Little Stitcherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00331764930982495645noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-198922482848351065.post-45553671407888760932008-01-29T21:26:00.000+00:002008-01-29T21:49:16.496+00:00Bunny in the head lights!<span style="font-size:130%;">My working day certainly had a cumbersome beginning and certainly a startling end! I wasn't in the mood for work today (who is?) But you know you get on with it for the spondoulikays (money). Anyhoooooo about to leave home Stoatie shouts 'have you got your keys?', me, 'errrmmm yeah ('duuuhh why wouldn't I?' in my head) off goes the Stoat to work (five minute walk from home). I get ready all grumpy. I reach for the keys, ta da! Not there, nowhere, not a sniff of keys anywhere! DDDAAAAMMMMMNNNNNN Panic, can't get out! Can't get out if there is a fire! Can't get OUT AAAGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH. No over reaction or anything. Me all panicky phones the stoat four times-engaged damn damn damn Fifth time panic panic got no keys! aaahhhhhhh. Stoat 'big sigh' (stupid bitch- in his head) and has to run home to let me out to work and run back to get back for his job! yikes! On the way to work I realised that the said keys are in fact not holidaying in the med but in work. STOOOPID! They are now in my rightful hands and will not leave my sight! haa<br /><br />The day went as expected-OK. The thought of my day off took over the afternoon and got me through. Also along with the fact it is the Stoat and mine's anniversary. woohoo.<br /><br />On leaving work me thinks it a great idea to go and get some loverly pop! (diet coke) so off I march to the co-op. I exchange the shiny for the pop with the lady, go on my merry way. Crossing by a beautiful church. Screech bap. SQUISH. I get hit in the stomach by a wing mirror! Total idiot is speeding hence the belly full of mirror. My shopping flies off to mars (down the street) I am thrown into a spin like a mad Martha Graham dance piece and luckily find my balance (surely down to all those years of dance, it did come in useful mum and dad!) But yikes do I feel like crap and an idiot! Traffic was mental and on red so loads of people saw it!<br /><br />Thank goodness several people came to my rescue, instantly telling me the driver was speeding. FOOL! I was so angry but trying to be balanced about it all, whilst freaking out and in pain. I just wanted to be at home at that minute away from all the attention. Ambulance came drove me around the corner by the kebab house (no I failed to take advantage of this) checked me out, saw I was, apart from sore and freaked, not dying! WOO HOO! Bless em they gave me a lift home. That was embarrassing! I live a ten minute walk away so they didn't mind.<br /><br />So thanks to the good Samaritans and the ambulance crew! The police have just left mine as they came to take a statement. She told me that the wing mirror was smashed to pieces. Yey Thank god I'm fat and I had that safety flab!<br /><br />Thanks to the good people of Wrexham!<br /></span>Little Stitcherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00331764930982495645noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-198922482848351065.post-91198121035305757132008-01-02T18:35:00.000+00:002008-01-02T18:47:18.744+00:00Happy New Year<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoC0OTUuWOXIYIlYfqkJIOQ0GDnzB4m9K7fQ4OQfQoTlc5_wTfaZzV6CwoOblyhtYPcEDC-nPkC0cME243RHp4W-Jnl2AICFvuR9ywoamFJpphPDyYZUGHrhdp1btQCRtxaNuhOqY6SmeX/s1600-h/christmas07+020.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoC0OTUuWOXIYIlYfqkJIOQ0GDnzB4m9K7fQ4OQfQoTlc5_wTfaZzV6CwoOblyhtYPcEDC-nPkC0cME243RHp4W-Jnl2AICFvuR9ywoamFJpphPDyYZUGHrhdp1btQCRtxaNuhOqY6SmeX/s320/christmas07+020.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5150951663911054290" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);font-size:130%;" >I hope you all had lots of fun!

Babies have been born time has passed so hop to it. I began sewing a little cross stitch piece taken from <a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/New-Cross-Stitch-Sampler-Book/dp/071531372X/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1195420657&sr=1-5">Helen Philipp's book The New Cross Stitch Sampler Book</a>. Catchy title hey. It is a lovely book and I have stitched the majority of patterns in it. This is a sampler for the birth of my cousin's baby boy.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdKBwP90t2NmXlrsS49DlfeJ82qWLEvK_ffQhbyNMm1maQSJUrI60v9bZpY94lZN-KE4JFpO8WL7Tdw-YBd1Wudmy9C8Du1jEcQh9lISOs-pGjHEf8KGcaarVRcvuogWMgWrLinsCFPfrx/s1600-h/new+camera+271.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdKBwP90t2NmXlrsS49DlfeJ82qWLEvK_ffQhbyNMm1maQSJUrI60v9bZpY94lZN-KE4JFpO8WL7Tdw-YBd1Wudmy9C8Du1jEcQh9lISOs-pGjHEf8KGcaarVRcvuogWMgWrLinsCFPfrx/s320/new+camera+271.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5134292202350807458" border="0" /></a><br />I have really got stuck in. So I am really getting ahead with it. As usual I kept mislaying my needle, a dangerous habit I may add. I remembered the <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=7152677">strawberry pincushions</a> I made a while ago. What handy little things they are.
