SKY WATCH BLOGROLL

It's half-term here next week.......so last day at college for a while. The Sociology assignment I handed in at the beginning of January has finally been marked and I'm pleased to say I got a Pass. My History assignment is handed in now......over the half-term we have two assignments to do so I won't be completely leaving behind college work over the break. I'm still hoping to go to London and visit the Victoria and Albert on Wednesday and on Thursday Leanne & co are coming to stay for a few days ...doesn't leave many days to get those assignments done!!

Have a good weekend everyone.....

Thank you for your beautiful work, Ruth. I've just gotten into blogging, and have a few blogs going now. If you get a chance you might look at

which is where I post experimental computer art and effects based on original photographs. Be happy and well!

er kveldshimmelen rød blir morgenen blød

Gledwood said...

Ruth this is all lovely... but what's happened this week...

please tell! You're one of my best bloggerfriends... I know i've been rather nihilist in the past... but I really like to hear what you're up to...

take care... come by my NEW IMRPOVED with hammy pxx galore new pages....

take care Ruth!
Lots of love

ps I might be saying the long goodbye too... my gran's been really ill... in and out of hospital... surely she could do without the shoving pillar to post stuff... I'm dead worried about her she is my only grandparent I have left and I shall not lose her if God has anything to do with it

;->...

take care Ruth and lots of love
