What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday..55

Morning everyone....well summer has returned to this far flung part of the UK..it was cooking yesterday and it's getting me in the mood for tennis......thoughts of sitting getting all red and lobstery.....eating strawberries and cream...the click clack of the ball as it wings it's way time and time again over the net in a marathon Federer rally...oh yes did I mention I am off to Wimbledon tomorrow.....and I can't wait....am so excited.
But why oh why do the British media always have to pour a damper on things.....the mighty Mr F gave me a few scary moments on Monday but pulled back to win through to the next round.....and the media go crazy.....is the mighty one finished...going to be out in the next round.....for goodness sake the guy is human and probably just having an off day....we can all relate to off days can't we....he's not some super machine playing every shot perfectly.....so give the guy a break.
And not content with that....they are now whipping up a storm about who is or is not going to bow and curtsey to Her Maj on Thursday....not helped by comments from Andy Murray who thinks he will look foolish if he bows and his opponent doesn't......what planet is this guy on....as my old Mum used to say "don't follow the flock....do what you think is right"....and if I was his Mum I would be giving him a clip round the ear and a good talking to....time to grow up young man.   And haven't they been in their element with the goings on at the World Cup.....players going on strike...dissent in the England camp....oh for goodness sake...lots of prima donna behaviour from a bunch of overpaid little boys who have come to believe the hype about how wonderful they all are.....the sooner it's over the better but the media will then move on to the next lot of sensational news...anything that will sell newspapers.
I feel better for getting that off the old chest and after that little rant it's time to play along at WOYWW this week.   The work stuff is all up to date so today I am having a little play with some felt and Tim's Tattered Florals...


no I haven't got World Cup fever....making some cards to be sold in aid of a very worthwhile cause....and you can join in the fun too....will post details tomorrow.....am abandoning the cubbyhole for the garden....a crafting session out in the sun...


and will be taking this with me


so I had better get a move on but I leave you with this thought......has the furry boy got wind of my girlie trip away and in his own funny way trying to tell me something....he deposited this at my feet this morning....


Catch up with you all tomorrow with news of a fun day out at Simply Create
