Looking Forward!

We are off on our holidays tomorrow after we have finished in the Birch Tree Class.
We have 14 coming to paint-and most of them are doing the 36in x 14in canvas so it will probably take a little longer than normal to do!

I have my niece Natalie coming to help me by holding the paint pots for the splattering bits and also collecting the sponges to wash etc.

Bill will be able to go off and do the last minute jobs that need to be done then!

My darling friend Jeannie is here to look after all the menagerie of parrots, cat and fish-Bill fetched her this afternoon.
Jake, Paddy and Sparky will be spoiled rotten by her as usual-they are all excited to see her as soon as she comes.
Bill has been and bought some of the birds favorite shortbread biscuits ( they are not spoiled much!) and I daresay they will have more than their normal 1/4 of biscuit each day while Jeannies here.
The fridge was stocked up with goodies for them all to enjoy while we are away! Its quite a joke when we go shopping-there is more bought for the cat and birds than for us!
Grapes, biscuits, cheese, marmite,apples and best ham--all for the pets!

Im very impressed with Bluestone Park customer service (where we are going Mon-Fri) we recieved an email from them yesterday saying dont bother to shop before you arrive-just tick the items on the shopping list attached and they will have all the items ready in the chalet when we arrive! So we did that-and are looking forward to the ribeye steak , sausage and dry cured bacon delivered fresh from the butchers when we arrive there!
We are stopping in St Clears for the first 2 nights, Bluestone Park for 4 nights and then a friends static caravan for 2 nights in Aberystwyth so it will be a lovely break.
We will be meeting up with an artist friend Steve who we last saw a couple of years ago which will be lovely!
I am off to bed now--morning will be here before we know it--will be a long day!
