Morning to you on yet another monday

This time in four weeks we will be in the UK

I will be up bright and early ready to take Hannah

to visit her new school.

Then we will be taking a long awaiting trip to 

TESCO

for some Christmas shopping.

and then maybe some present shopping..

What a year this will be..

nothing bought for Christmas and it will be

the 14 December!!! arrggghh

At least I have all my Christmas cards made

Just have to decide who gets which..

and try and deliver them all in time for the  BIG day

when the man in the big red suit arrives.

 Then the rest of my card stash

birthday etc, will go with Paul's mum

to church for their Christmas sale

I have about 100+ cards

so they should make 100+ pounds

Hopefully, boosting the church funds

I have made a card.. last week actually

posted it on Friday so it should get to the UK

on time..fingers crossed

it is for Paul's son Karl

Now there are a lot of things about the card

that will mean something to Karl

here is the card

 Karl and Paul used to watch the Simpsons

way back when Paul used to have him stay over

 so Homer made an appearance 

BUT

Karl is in a band called 

Virgin Voltz

If I have done this right clicking above

should take you to their website..

anyway 

 he is the lead guitarist

that is why homer is with a guitar 

not because Karl looks like Homer..lol

BUT

the guitar is a Les Paul

the exact one that Karl uses.

The shape of the card is Karl's guitar also

 Am sure Karl will notice straight away

I hope so, took ages on the computer

editing the Les Paul onto the image.

Paul has done the verse..

as always its rather good.

and it always amazes me how quick he thinks of them

Karl, my son, a note from afar

Of  birthday greeting to a rising rock star

Twenty five today and a future foretold

Of fame and fortune and everything gold

Not being there today we only regret

A quarter of a century that's not over yet

Not long now and we'll see you at hand

strumming away in your very own band

Work hard, but enjoy and remember that we

are waiting delivery of that red Farrari

Happy Birthday

Now the farrari bit..

Karl has told Paul that when he is MEGA famous

he will buy him one ..lol

Few years yet then..

so there is his card..

One last thing

I had t show this..

Most of my craft stuff is packed.. 

but I do have a few things about in boxes

and look who decided to climb and sit there

Yes Hector..

Right I had best get on

Keep myself busy

Day five of the non smoking today..

All is going fine..

If I have something to do

Catch up later
