Olympic joy

Hellllllllooooooooooooooooooo,(waves)  and welcome back to manda's challenges :)
Just a general post today as it's been a wee while don't you think ~~~~der dum de dum de dum haha
Sooo what have i been up to ?? well let's see~
I participated in the Ravellenic Games whilst the Olympics was in full swing... oh yes i only managed to enter one event but it was very worthy hehe
Wrestling Wip's oooooh i hear the gasps :)
yes i chose to unearth a piece of work i should have got finished ages agoooooooooooo.
A hell of a lot of ooooh's on the go today haha adds to the suspense me thinks haha i am feeling mischievousness i guess it's seeping out in my writing haha
Pics you want a few pics ? let's do it :)

 oooh do you remember the Japanese flower shawl i started way back here takes you back a lil bot doesn't it.
You know i don't quite know why i didn't pursue it as it's gorgeous, other than i get bored easily oops
Bit of  joke in the family that crochet is the only hobby i've had so far that's lasted longer than a year!! it's true,
guess i must be enjoying stretching my capabilities and producing pretty loving things that i know somewhere will be cherished.
ooh remember that lacy waistcoat i made i still love it!! look i wore it a wedding !!

my step brother's wedding bless him well did i do it justice i hope so as i was called on for a sister brothers snap eek!
aww all fun :)
what else has been keeping me busy ooh well let's see naturally the olympic games being hosted in Great Britain was a real buzz and not living too far away from one of the venue's (sailing) meant that excitement was bound to be an all time high!! ooh yes Olympic fever had hit big time and not even the workplace let up haha

I am very fortunate that the big big boss of my workplace encourages me to go wild at special events and i didn't fail to deliver for the entire games haha a different layout each day from the ring's which caused a little stir amongst the customers who believed i was being naughty but was reassured by my bosses as i wasn't using the exact colours i was ok besides they were sponsoring a particular team ;)
so i also entranced them with a team GB theme a GB theme an Olympic medal theme etc i had fun!!!

Even more fun was had during a special congratulation's Team GB day at work and of course my highlight was having the very special privilege of attending one of the events down at Weymouth a wee drive away :)
the atmosphere was absolutely fantastic, i can't begin to explain the absolute joy every person at that event was happy and united and i was sooo proud, GB wasn't sailing the day we went but we thoughly enjoyed watching and soaking up the whole atmosphere from the countries that were participating that day, Bravo therefore to the Sailing Olympic Teams!!!
And so now trying to compose once more (unlikely the Paraolympics are just days away!! )
i thought i'd leave you with a floral pics :)

i bought a new camera so officially back enjoying my snapping away once more :)
Until next time my lovelies take good care of yourselves xx
