How can it be Wednesday again? Thank you to all of you who commented on my blog last week - hope I get round to all of you this week! I didn't get much chance last week as I had Ollie here all weekend and the Monday public holiday - he is quite a handful! Here he is with a 'bandicoot' in the park...


Here we are in the Australian Garden next door where we saw a real bandicoot! Can you see it?

 Anyway I am linking to the Stamping Ground!

Follow the link to find out more about What's on Your Work Desk Wednesday and maybe join in... This is my post for WOYWW #719

I am just going to Aquarobics class so I will have to comment later, all being well.

SO here's my desk!


You can see two journals - the green one is the start of the current Wanderlust page, the other is a use up page...

I shared my calendar using Gelli pulls with pastels  last week.


This is what I did with the other pulls:




Wishing you a happy week...

Happy  WOYWW!
