He ain't heavy, he's my brother.


I'm having a number one weekend.

Great market yesterday with no obvious signs of that 'fever' I feared.
We did sell a suspiciously large number of toys so 
  I think 'it' will be here soon but no need to panic yet.



and then... great boot fair today...

There was one little 'incident' with  two Sooty's
(one had a REAL wand but in my excitement I bought the wrong one
and a little boy got the wand. I wrestled him to the ground...no I did not!...
 so now I must fashion one from a stick but don't tell).

 I won't let that spoil my booty bounty bonanza.

Perhaps I'm having a second childhood...


but I just can't resist these guys.


 They are all getting along so well...
.


and best off all... I rescued a one legged Pinocchio
from the rubbish ...


So on we go...his welfare is of my concern.
No burden is he to bear, we'll get there.

It's a long long road from which there is no return.
While we're on our way to there, why not share?

 I couldn't have shared a REAL wand.
Would you share
 A REAL MAGIC WAND?

Crafty days don't get much better.

  8. How wonderful that Pinocchio has a brother to look after him! How do you make all the words in your pictures they look so good! I wish I had known that there were 17 charity shops in Bognor before my holiday to West Sussex, I would have loved visiting them!
