It’s Sunday, it’s blog day and it’s very cold and wet and snowy. I have a local show this afternoon so that is handy, not too much travelling. Yesterday I worked with seven other balloon artistes and eight face painters at the Jumanji press day preview. It was nice...

It’s been an exciting week this week, possibly for the wrong reasons. I purchased a fiat doblo a couple of months back and it has always sounded not quite right when starting. It had to go in and the air con needed to be checked due to there being no gas in the system...

We had a fun few days this week showing Sam Cremeens around London and then the two day balloon event up in Birmingham. We had an excellent turn out of club members but only two people came to see Sam that did not belong to the club. How to attract people to see what...

This week we have been getting things ready for the Sam Cremeens workshops that are happening next week 20th and 21st Nov in Halesowen, near Birmingham. Both days will be different with a large wearable design shown at each day. The aeroplane on Mon and the pirate...

We are just back from the Hamburg Jam that was a lot of fun, needing to catch up on some sleep and all the emails and calls etc. It was a fun time with Amanda, Caroline and Susie, we managed to not get lost going from the venue back to the airport on a couple of...

This might be a short and sweet blog today as I’m getting ready to travel over to Germany tomorrow for the Hamburg jam. If anyone is placing orders this week then please do not panic as Lyn will be shipping them out as usual. I will be taking plenty of pictures over...

It’s Blog Sunday today, this week we went over to the Essex face painting jam. We drove over the night before as I had Phoebe my favourite grand daughter with me, when I say this Phoebe is hot off the mark to mention to others that she is my only grand daughter, still...

The blog is a little late today as I have been filming for BalloonTube. We have filmed 7 designs today, Tank, Rabbit, Angel Wand, Owl, Racing Car, Crown and a Rocket. The filming went OK, the car was on the third attempt as we had a couple of pops. The Owl the second...

Not too much balloon modelling done this week as I was sorting out details for my new car and advertising the old one to sell. I went down to St Austell on the train on Friday and picked the new second hand car up. Another Fiat Doblo with air conditioning, a little...

I thought I would talk about the stress of buying a car this week. So not too much balloon related but we do fill the car up with the shop when attending balloon days and conventions etc. I have been keeping an eye out for a Fiat Doblo for probably about 5/6 months...
