The End Of Half Term x

Hi there my loves,

How are you all doing? I'm doing absolutely great ;)  Even though it is the end of our half term!

We've had a fab week. Gavin's been off with us for the week and we decided to get away for a few days. After discussion we decided upon Liverpool. So that was that, train tickets and hotel were booked and off we went.

We visited Albert Dock......
The far corner over there is the television studio, unfortunately Fred's map is gone!
I loved walking around here it's full of gorgeous restaurants and coffee shops. It also houses the Maritime Museum which we all enjoyed.

We also took a 50min trip on a ferry across the Mersey.....
It was very breezy but great to sit at the front of the ferry. The views were great especially of the Liver Building....
We were tempted but didn't go on the Yellow Duck Marine!!....
Of course we went to Mathew Street......
And had a chat with John!!!! And a peer into The Cavern Club.....

I spent a while reading this......

We had a great time, we also managed Lot's of late night shopping and more sightseeing.
I loved the Superlambananas......


I've also  managed a bit of crochet over half term...of course. First are these....


That turned into these....
And then these....

Then these.....

And then this....

I love it. I haven't done a baby blanket before. I thought I'd give one a go and see how it sells at this years craft fair.

I've got a lot of yarn left so have started another......

That's it so far with this one.

My Inside Crochet mag dropped through the door with a gorgeous pattern for little mice. I couldn't resist of course.....

How Cute x

Well my loves I'm sitting here....
With a glass of Muscat itching to crochet so....

 night night for now my loves and happy crochet x x x

  3. Hello Esther, found your blog whilst on Penelope's. Lovely reading this post - a trip back in time for me...well, some of it, as some of it wasn't quite in this form back in the day. Born and brought up in Liverpool I am now an exile in Norfolk, but still miss certain aspects of the old place. Glad you and your little ones enjoyed your time there, it isn't all doom and goom 'oop north' as I try and tell people!
