You bought a car, that is really exciting. I have never owned a car, and I'm almost 31! In fact I only got my P plates last year...took me 14 years as a learner to get around to it. I wish you more luck that I had when you go for your test...I wrote a story on my blog about going for my test and failing a number of times, you can read it here if you want: http://www.nanjingnian.com/on-failure-fathers-and-facing-your-fears/ Hope you have a nice weekend :) IsabelIsabelhttp://www.nanjingnian.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-842143733350522715.post-80243142763827891692015-07-13T07:44:51.573-07:002015-07-13T07:44:51.573-07:00Eeek!

I adore the groovy collar and fabulous print. <br />I bet that temperature is a shock to the system after your long, hot Summers. We've had some mad weather lately. Its the height of summer her and I travelled home today in a fake fur coat. xxx<br />Vixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05263970600699632661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-842143733350522715.post-40538776444158946052015-07-12T11:41:29.359-07:002015-07-12T11:41:29.359-07:00Gorgeous little Sandie!

I use the editor that came with my pretty special camera, but fear my shots are always over-saturated. Don't even know what to do with that! And a Fiat! My fave car ever. Enjoy it :)SewJillianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02942981677938784086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-842143733350522715.post-88180626664895859022015-07-10T01:43:31.925-07:002015-07-10T01:43:31.925-07:00I don't know how you ever cope in 40 degree su...I don't know how you ever cope in 40 degree summer heat - it was31 degrees here in the UK for one day last week and it nearly killed me. Terrible energy-sapping humid heat which didn't even end in a cracking thunderstorm (I love a good storm.) If it gets up to 11 degrees here in winter (though it can be only 11 degrees at any time of the year, including summer) then the central heating is switched off to save on the energy bills. Love the dresses you make, you're very talented.Elizabeth Yulehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17992201572250750294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-842143733350522715.post-35135025442852628332015-07-10T00:34:49.426-07:002015-07-10T00:34:49.426-07:00Such a great pattern!
