Battlelines.. School Shoe shopping

It was a scene of destruction it was Waterloo all over again bodies every where, legs and limbs askew.

Tears and wanting the very best, only what was waiting on the other side mattered. Eyes were focused , but then another set of eyes  started glinting from the corner.

Well the battle lines was drawn , the red wait paint applied, the secret signals sent of silently mouthing the words " That's mine"

Quicker out the the blocks than Usain Bolt but what was this ? A Mo Farrah ( peoples champion coming through ) the troops eagerly willing them one !

So extra energy needed to be  applied knowing there was a reason for a lonely Jaffa cake in my pocket it spurred me on , with Mo at  snapping at the heels. A triumphant arm was stretched out clutching the prize , The customary Usain Bolt pose was taken.

Meanwhile my husband walked up and said "can we just buy the school shoes please" passing me a tissue to wipe of my red lipstick war paint.

School shoe shopping is war I tell you  . WAR.....


Triumphant was I slowly squeaking away in my Crocs ...

Shoe School Shoe shopping is war!

Hello Canvas Review



I was contacted to see if I would like to do a Canvas for Hello Canvas and with Mr T photographing everything that moves I happily agreed and to be honest his pictures are rather good . This is the picture I emailed to Hello canvas the quality of the image has to be of a certain quality but they can talk you through all that , thats just what they did for me.



 And they can magic your picture into a black and white,Sepia or colour canvas.

Hello Canvas state if you order before 4pm it's delivered within 3 working days. With free packaging you are sometimes left wondering how it will reach you. But I needn't have worried as the canvas was in a bubble sleeve and in very very sturdy card board box ably delivered by a nice delivery man. Upon opening the package ( not the delivery man ) the cardboard box (task what were you thinking ?) This is what greeted me.





Prices for a canvas range from £13 - £99 - Available at www.hellocanvas.co.uk.

The canvas I received was £39 and I am elated with it. If had been a problem then there is a sticker on the back of the canvas for you to contact them so they can swiftly deal with it.
But my canvas was picture prefect in every way and I would certainly order from them again.
