First of all, I had a birthday…
Yes, another one, by crikey!!!
I spent it at one of my favourite hotels, La Rosa, in Whitby.
I had my hair quoiffed…I'm quite liking the straight look, for a change..
I spent a week filming videos…
This is the start of the week
And this is how I feel at the end, lol..
This week the fabulous Dina Wakely is teaching in our shop, Art from the Heart, so she flew in a bit early so we could get tons of work done.
We always start with a production meeting, and what better place than the famous Betty"s of Harrogate.
Then it was back to Reaveley Towers to film another online class for our Back2Back series.
Early start the next day and back to Betty's for a traditional breakfast.
Nothing beats a good British sausage in the morning !!
We managed to squeeze in a little bit of retail therapy and then it was back to the Tower for more filming.
Here's to a fabulous weekend
Whatever you're up to
Enjoy xx
