Craft Shows Calendar

Craft Fairs, Shows and Markets Where You Can Meet me & occasionally Mr. A too! : I don’t have a showroom (yet!) but you can meet me at various local craft fairs and hand-made markets in Stamford and surrounding areas. I have updated the Craft Calendar on my website. You can have a look via the link above :-) This little one has been helping me sort out all the jewellery and packaging for the fairs too!

For about  a month now I have been suffering from blurred vision on and off.  Some days I can see clearly but some days the vision is completely blurred. Been to the optician – nothing wrong with eye sight. Had a whole lot of blood tests including for diabetes. All Fine. I have now been referred to the eye clinic & Fingers Crossed they will know what’s wrong.

Another Shout Out For Twitter!

Today I met someone else who I have been talking with for a few months on twitter - Andy Deighton from the Events and Fundraising team of local charity St Barnabas Hospice (  @StBarnabasLinc on twitter). The charity ploughs all the funds it raises back into helping Lincolnshire. It was a very pleasant meeting and some interesting ideas discussed. Always nice to put a face to name :-) Read more about St. Barnabas Lincolnshire Hospice   on their website. And can I just add that we met at the Stamford Arts Centre , a great venue for one to one and group meetings. They serve up a nice mug of coffee at the Arts Centre Coffee Shop too.
