I've been a bit slack this weekend in writing, but it was my last few days of vacation so couldnt be botherd. We went to 2 auctions saturday and sunday. Didnt find much but it was fun being there watching it all. But i came home with a box of various textiles and a folder with various pictures, prints and the likes. Nothing very interesting and im sure not worth anything, but all the same good fun.

I had a mail today which i thought was hilarious so decided to share it with you all, well not really, im forcing you to read it so there! ;o) Here goes..

These are actual clippings from church newspapers. It's  amazing what a little proofreading would've  prevented.
