Sketch time

Middle of the school hols at the moment. In my spare moments that the children let me on the computer, I realise that my internet sites aren't working. The kids had download something that left me with a bizarre home page and when Geoff removed it, all  my old sites had been blocked. Turns out the computer had gotten a bit confused somewhere along the track and it is all fixed now. I wish my problems were all that easy to fix...

So back in the unreal world again - yay!

In my absence, Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge has put on the second challenge for the month. A sketch to interpret anyway you want to.

 And here is mine -

 

 Go check out the many and varied interpretations of the sketch on our challenge site - how I love sketches!!!

And one of the challenges this month over at Child's Play is to use the game rush hour as the inspiration for a LO.  Last time we were in Hanoi (sounds like we travel there often - we've been twice..) we noticed that the traffic had increased in both size and power over the three years since we had first visited. Vietnam is becoming economically stronger with each passing year, the motorbikes which are ubiquitous are becoming faster, making crossing the road even more perilous, as the regard for traffic rules are somewhat flexible... Travelling on their main highway at night is the most terrifying experience I have been through. The photo of us in taken in the middle of one of the main intersections near the old quarter, getting half way across is an achievement, the rest of the way was easier.

On the home front, we think the public notification process may finish today so we are again house hunting with a more firm time table in mind. we have chosen all our colours, tiles, taps etc. Only carpet and one wall colour to go which can be chosen when the house is mostly up. Relived that bit is over. Just dealing with banks now.

Have  a great day - looking forward to seeing your take on the sketch. xx
