The Plane Never Arrived

Well I should have been swanning around Victoria by now, but two hours before we were due to leave for the airport I get  a phone call from “Renee” saying the flight has been cancelled…….what!!!….why….Renee’s only explanation was ‘the plane didn’t arrive’…uh, is it lost?…..did it, heaven forbid, crash?….has it got a flat tyre? She didn’t know and then proceeded to give me a dud phone number to call to make alternative arrangements. So, many calls later to the airline in another state (my suspicions, in another country) we are scheduled to leave this afternoon God willing.

So I have the opportunity to do one last post before I go. I was the February winner in the Rings & Things monthly Blog Partners drawing. They took so long to arrive I was worried they were lost forever. But arrive they did and I’m really glad because they are gorgeous.

Some tiny raw brass flower charms. #44-410-03-0
Lime magnesite slab beads #75-000-94-09-07
Mulitcoloured Uganda paper beads #75-000-95
And two Tootsie Rolls (I ate one already).

I’ve already used two of the paper beads.

Not the best photo. I’m trying out different parts of the house to get better light now that the sun is lower in the sky. I took these in the kids bathroom and used the zoom. Not a good idea me thinks.

Light green (not that you can tell) textured polymer clay with paper beads and a tiny seed bead on the end.

So wish me luck the plane arrives this afternoon and we leave as scheduled.
