Happy Valentine's!

Good morning and a very Happy Valentine's day to you all!

Will you be celebrating? We are off to Cinema City in Norwich to see Breakfast at Tiffany's tonight, there's a chocolate tasting session before hand which I'm really looking forward to. Never seen the film the whole way through, but with Audrey Hepburn what's not to like? We did think about seeing Amour which won a BAFTA and looks fantastic, but I thought it might be a bit too gut wrenching for Valentine's so we will reserve that for another night. We've become members of this fab theatre on our doorstep. We haven't been there for years but I'll take some snaps if I can and post them on here tomorrow-here's a link to it http://www.picturehouses.co.uk/cinema/Cinema_City/

While I was at St Benet's Abbey in Norfolk on Monday I took some photos of some very old graffiti, I think its 18th Century but might need to check on that one-I'll let you know if I'm wrong. I thought it very fitting for today.

I've also including the Valentine's card I made for my husband. Its drawn in inks and then stitched in places-Paul's beard and glasses, the rain, sun rays and love hearts. I think I've captured my usual disgruntled look that I reserve for my husband, rather well! Want to do blanket stitch around the edge just to finish it off.




I did trawl some shops looking for a card with my friend Jayne but they offended my eye with their ugliness so badly there was no way I was gonna purchase one. Jayne and I did have a good laugh though, I noticed a girl in her twenties clutching one with two puppies on, I think she really was going to buy it, I do hope she wasn't too offended by the taste police! In the absence of my favourite card-and other lovely things shop-The Inner Yard, The Old Potato Yard, Lydeway in Wiltshire http://www.theinneryard.co.uk, I was forced to take the matter into my own hands. I'm quite happy with the results and so was Paul which is the main thing after all!

Have a good and romantic day-if you're that way inclined! xx
