Craft & Vintage Sunday

Myself and my lovely sister Fiona will be selling vintage inspired jewellery, crafts and beautifully illustrated cards and stationery at the Craft & Vintage Sunday on 28 February at Broadstone Mill in Reddish, Stockport.

These events will be happening on the last Sunday of every month and they seem to be growing in popularity with each one. It's really good to see something creative and entrepreneurial happening in our home town and we're very honoured to have been invited along!

There will be lots of unique handmade gifts to choose from and, what's more, you can talk to the people who made what you're buying - now, you don't get that on the high street, do you? Plus, you can get your hands on some one-off vintage bargains.

Doors open at 11am through until 4pm and admission is FREE!

Sponsor Me To Shine

I've never really been one for new year's resolutions; they're usually the same perrenial, unrealistic expectations that inevitably lie in tatters come February.

But, this year, I thought I'd resolve to do something positive and that wasn't purely for my own benefit.

So, I'm taking part in Shine Manchester on Saturday, 17 April 2010 by doing a half marathon night-time walk around the streets of Manchester to raise money for Cancer Research UK.

I'd really appreciate any donations (no matter how small) to help me reach my £150 fundraising target. Whatever you can give would be greatly appreciated and go towards the excellent work that Cancer Research UK does.

You can find out more about the event and the route here: http://shine.cancerresearchuk.org or click on the button below to donate.

P.S. Remember to GiftAid it, ta.
