Dinosaurs and crazy golf

As I sit here drinking decaff coffee and eating yet another chocolate cake for breakfast it occurs to me that by writing this blog I have in fact just given myself another thing to do this holiday.  I must like pressure and deadlines - thats the only explanation for it...  So to challenge this I will not be writing everyday now otherwise its just another thing to feel guilty for!  (Interestingly this is what always happens when I try to keep a diary.  Start writing everyday, then every few days then maybe once a week, until finally I say I'll only write if something exciting happens and it never does so the diary remains empty!)

Anyhoo, yesterday I made ankle bracelets.  This was after Sunday lunch at the pub with the Fam followed by Dinosaur crazy golf in the at times torrential rain.  

When I got home I had to put my fleece, yes fleece, pyjamas on just to avoid a cold!   The plan was to curl up and watch a crappy movie. The 'best' we could find was Jack the Giant Killer.  And indeed it was crappy.  So much in fact that I got bored 20 minute sin and while it was on in the background decided to raid my old jewellery box and dig out my crafty tools.   Sitting cross-legged on the carpet making stuff always reminds me of my old Meccano set. (Oh, how I loved that set even if the bolts always became loose and fell apart before I'd finished making the ferris wheel. . .)



Well, here's what I made.  Not sure how I'm supposed to wear the one that looks like a flip flop while I've got shoes on...
