A Bag for Anna

Today was the last day for Anna who I work with at Nursery. She is forging ahead with her career to become a teacher and she will be fab. As I think everyone needs a new bag when they start school this is what I made her for a leaving gift. Spotty on the inside with London print on the outside with a spotty bow.

Very spotty

Anna loved the bag and was impressed when I said I had made it. She said I had been hiding my skills - I then declared to Toni 'What a Hoot Pants' that I write a blog and they all squealed. If you are reading this girls HELLO!!

Guess what - I'm off on my holidays tomorrow. Cornwall here we come. Yeahhhh!!!!

Hoping this will post as Blogger was naughty earlier 'sorry showing inappropriate behaviour and lost my post' - bleat.

Strange Name

Quite simple really Dylan - our dog - loves to hide things around the house - especially food items. Now sometimes its one of his own treats, sometimes its a crust or a sweetie wrapper -he is a tinker. On one occasion in a mad episode of cleaning (not a favourite past time of mine) I moved the sofa low and behold I found two bones and a bagel - I immediately announced to Nellie (DD2) that it would be a fab name for a blog. So there you are the reason behind the name.

Doh in a Simpson's styleee just realised that in my blog name I have misspelt bagel - well it will have to stay as I have no intention or nowhow as to how to change my blog name. After all it has taken me two years to get around to/pluck up the courage to jump in = I don't want to spoil it now. LOL.
