Old beige random pattern curtain.

New lined beige curtain, made today. Blends quite nicely with the other, old one.

I left #SouthTyneside libraries 38 years ago. One of the curtains that were my leaving gift, lives on in front of the kitchen under-stair cupboard. My new door cushion had to be similar - I'm quite pleased with the outcome.

#DeFormUK have previous .. can't find #Clacton .. campaigned in an area not in #GortonAndDenton .. now #SouthTyneside .. are their leaflets printed in #Dubai ??

#SouthTyneside my friends, it’s a pretty amazing place to live. #Beach #photography. This one is accessible with the most stunning cycle path that’s a dream to cycle.

You're all probably going to see (and hear) a lot from this thing from now on...

*UPDATE*

I've been avoiding this for ages, but I think that from February onwards I'm going to have to put my prices up a little.

As much as odd numbers pain me, I'm thinking £23 per hour, and £12 for a half hour.
