Power cuts

 Hi all

It’s cold and windy here today, we had lots of power cuts through the night and then around 5.30am this morning power went off all together, we decided to buy a camping stove as we are all electric here, so no heating, no cooking and oh no, no kettle.  So off we went then had to turn around as a tree was down blocking the main way out of the village, then went past the cricket club only to have to turn around again as another tree down, so ended up going across the moors.

The electric came on around 3.30 this afternoon but we have no internet so I am unable to comment as I need the main computer am using my data on my tablet via the SIM card at the moment.  

Anyway enough of the moaning at least we don’t have snow lol. Todays card is made from some of the things I bought in Bath was fascinated by glitter art so thought I would give it a go and this is one of the cards I am making to send to family


The light is not very good sorry this was the best photo .  Will hopefully be able to comment tomorrow so will see you on the other side.  

Love Alison x

No sleep at all here last night (well hubby slept!)due to really strong winds and something banging every couple of mins the entire night -torrential rain and non stop all day-still going now.Fingers crossed we had power but two estates nearby lost theirs-at least as you say no snow.
Beautiful card and image/stencil? and love the glitter

A beautiful card Alison, lots of lovely sparkle. That's a great idea to buy a camping stove, at least you'll get something hot to eat and drink, hope you can keep cosy, Kate x

Your card is beautiful, I love the glitter. Such a lovely design.

Wasn't it just awful Alison, our night was like sleeping on the middle of an airport runway with planes taking off around us. Thankfully our power only was off for 20 minutes, but a few miles away, some are still without power this Monday night.
Keep safe and warm.
