Oh how I love Oxfam!

As I have said before, I work one afternoon a week in the local Oxfam shop. I sort the children's books and restock the shelves. And I buy so much stuff! Yesterday, I deliberately didn't take any of my cloth shopping bags as I was sure I wouldn't bring anything home. But I didn't need them because the huge assortment of old plastic flowers came in their own enormous suitcase.
Just the thing for winter!

As I have also mentioned, Geoff laughs like no-one I have ever known - so completely and sometimes I think - dangerously.

Yes - He is watering the plastic flowers, though the nasturtiums are real.

Here is a jam update - Owen and Geoff made crab apple jelly

Lots of crab apple jelly - it set really well and Owen is so proud of it!
And I made a tea cosy and had a trip into Corbridge to buy a matching tea pot - picture of that to follow because it's dark and I can't get a decent picture.

Looking forward to tomorrow!
