Hey you!
An amusing thing happened on the way back from the pub......
I am typing here with a sore thumb, so i cannot knit, sew and it is driving me crackers!!
Where did this begin...well....My hope of the perfect shop for my business fell into an abyss as the landlord for some reason became elusive after I signed the lease. The letting agency could not understand it either. So there i was sitting on a couple of thousand pounds worth of supplies and no-where to go. My head was kettled.
After three months hard work making my own stuff to sell as well as ordering beautiful yarns and equipment. Sourcing fabrics and so on I was mentally exausted when this happened. A short holiday would clear my head ready for the next push to selling my wares before Christmas, I thought. Do me good, I thought.
So up to the lower Lake District in England, the bloke at home, the mad English mastiff, the motor home and me off on a jolly. Little did we know it would rain all week......No not just your normal Lake District rain but torrential. It scared the pants of the m.m and t.b.a.h. So much so that by the end of the week neither would get out of the van!!!!
The last night we were there we thought the local pub would be good!! Up and down round countless bends we arrived at local pub turned into the now POSH restaurant. The bloke at home was so disappointed....up until he realised they sold La Trappe bear.
Aha the night has a better look, right onward to the village near where we were staying.
Many drinks later and time being served so onward home to the van....up, down, round and sharp up walk round the country lanes, pitched black without a torch. Yes the inevitable happens....the cell phone light was not enough to stop me from falling over and dislocating my thumb!!
The laughing gas was good and so were the doctors and nurses that put the thumb right!
A week later and my decision is nearly made a web shop or Etsy or both of course.
We have to get our thumb free first!! And an appointment with my business help and advisor/mentor.
So watch this space for the next installment!!
