William Kate and Catching Up

These cardboard cutouts of William and Kate were on a magazine display stand in a local supermarket. Lucky for me I have connections in the right places and carried them home when the display was finished. Emily is once again looking worried by my enthusiasms, Charlotte is still making up her mind.
And where have I been for the last 3 weeks? In a Blogger won't let me comment on other blogs/Post Royal Wedding/Post London Trip and now it's Winter SLUMP. Hope Blogger and Me are both over it!!!

HAPPY 90th BIRTHDAY Prince Phillip, sorry I missed it last Friday.

Last Saturday was Doll Club meeting and we have moved to a new hall, this was our welcome to new premises cake. Very pretty and delicious with a cup of tea. I think all agreed our new hall a great success.




I said this was a catching up post so I have to show my winning entry in the previous Doll club meeting. I received first prize in the Miniature book section with my tiny coronation book which can also be worn on a chain.


Emily wants to show her new bed. This one has ears and a tail and Charlotte has a matching one.

Of course they share my bed at night but the girls like a bed that can be placed to catch the sun in the day.

  3. Will the young couple be making a tour of Oz? I can show them Kings Park if they do lol.

    Love the tiny coronation book, and the kitties are cute too.

    On a side note, I'm having trouble with Blogger too but I find reading/posting via Mozilla seems to stop the problem. Could be an IE issue. Hope you have some success in clearing it up.

    Glad you're back, I had problems with Blogger too, but after a few days I installed the Mozilla Firefox browser, no problems there.

  6. Lovely to have you back on (blogger)board! Congrats. on first prize for your tiny book - very sweet! I wish our cats were like yours...We bought Tiger a lovely igloo when he was a kitten, and he curled up in it every night for the first few months. Now he just turns his little nose up at it - day or night. He prefers to snooze on our bed during the day when he isn't outside, and at night, he has taken over Topsy's bed in the laundry, while she sleeps on our bed. Kids.. who'd have 'em!

  8. Dear Sylvia,
    Welcome back. Sorry Emily is treating your wonderful cut-out with such disdain. Love your bust of Prince Phillip. Those little beds should be lovely and warm. Beautiful mini book.

  9. Hello, nice to see you again.

    I seem to be having blogger issues as well as it is very hard to leave a comment.
