Blogtoberfest - Day 3

Yippee! Flossy-P has created a button for all of us Blogtoberfesters...head on over here to get the code....

Inspired by the ever fabulous Potttymouthmama, here is the extent of my german language knowledge (picked up during one term of german lessons in year 7...a very looooong time ago).

Ich habe un bruder & zwei schwestern
OK, so the spelling is probably completely out the window and I'm sure the ampersand isn't actually german, but it should mean:
I have one brother and two sisters
Three whole months of german language torture and that's all I ended up with!
Thanks Cathy for bringin back such lovely memories....

Time to go shopping (under the cover of darkness)

If you didn't read Pottymouthmama's lovely tales of dump diving last week then you really should head on over and check out the motherload.....part 1, part 2 and part 3.

Then you'll understand why it's so exciting when the local council drops these little flyers into the letterbox....although we don't have much shopping time during this collection - less than a weeks notice! It means that people will put their unwanted stuff on the naturestrip this weekend, so it will have to be a very quick covert Sunday night mission....hmmm need to go and find my night vision goggles....

There are some very exciting giveaways happening too:
Silly Gilly has a fantastic vintage pattern giveaway happening (I won the 1974 pants pattern in her last giveaway and have made about ten pairs of cool 1970's pants since), and Hoppo Bumpo is celebrating her 100th post by giving away some beautiful vintage buttons and japanese fabric.
