Being good! ;-)

Ok..I was quite good!!
I didn't go too mad. I didn't even buy a bag, although I was very tempted and tried a few on my shoulder!
Here goes!!
The tins were a must! I probably won't use them in my kitchen. We shall see!!

Two tea plates only..as I have already too many plates as it is!

But I do love the new Spray Flowers design.

And the little jug..!

Two tea towels...not for cutting up!! Heaven forbid!

Two 'Spray Flowers' food covers.. and some paper napkins for crafting.


Two boxes for my buttons!

And finally two things that I didn't really need!! ;-)

Definitely an extravagance but I could not resist this ...!

Like I said..I was quite good!
LOL!
Oh and they did not have the two yards of fabric in stock,which I wanted but that can wait!
(Maybe!)

Maybe I bought nothing!!! ;-)


I don't know which is worse...going all the way to Bristol to watch Southampton FC lose...or trying to decide what to buy in CK!!! ;-)
What I do know, is that the first choice leaves you as glum as glum can be!
Whereas...!! ;-)
We did have such a lovely afternoon ! Well two of us did!
CK, Park Street, Bristol.

We walked from Clifton to Park Street, at a good pace... girls on a mission!

We entered, for a ten minute reccie.
Then we went away to have a cuppa and to deliberate.

We retraced our steps... and stayed in...for about an hour!!
Are there any other shops in Park street?... cos I'm damned if I know!!;-)
Time flies when you're having fun!

And the very nice salesgirl said it was fine to take a photo.

A photo!! ;-)
But give someone an inch and they take a mile!!
(To make up for York, where remember they said 'No'?!)







I'm sure that you've seen it all before!

But it's so pleasing on the eye, isn't it?


My brief from Mr Snippets was ..'You can buy something for your Christmas Present, something for your birthday and a treat for today!!'
Wow!
I nearly asked if I could have something for Easter (instead of an egg!) and something for Christmas 2009 but that would have been taking the proverbial 'you know what'!!
LOL!
I wonder...what did I buy?
Or maybe I bought nothing?
I mean...this might not be my shopping on the seat ...but then again..!
Well, of course I know what I bought..but I'm keeping you in ...



SUSPENSE!!
***
We waited by the Hippodrome for our 'glum' chauffeur to arrive.
After a welcome cuppa, back at my nephew's pad (he of Weston Pier fame!! Hi Andrew!) we hit the road again.
A huge thanks to Jen and Brian for the 'grand day out' ! ;-)
And to my other half, for his generosity...and for not minding me going off without him, on St Valentine's Day.

I hope everyone had a lovely day, like I did ;-)
