There was movement at the Convent
Word had got Around;
A Band of Batty Bloggers
Were taking over their Ground!
They were coming from all directions
Some from near and some from afar;
One hitched a ride in a plane
but most rolled up in a car!
Fabric and Thread, Food and Drink
and Fun and Laughter was on the Agenda
It was to be the Highlight
of their November!
For more Fabric and Thread
It was Planned to do some Shopping
Then back for lunch
And some present Swapping
All sorts of Surprises to Unwrap
Each one was so Good
It Deserved a Clap!
New Skills were Learnt
and Old ones Practised
New projects were started
and old ones were finished,
And some of us just socialised
because work we weren't!!
Some stayed Up late to continue their Toil
Others slept early
Their Shopping they would not Spoil
Eating was such a Pleasure
we ate to our Hearts Content because
Vicki our House Mother was an absolute Treasure!!
Outside it was Hot and Dry
no sign of Relief
could be Seen on the Horizon;
But guess who drove through a Storm on her way Home
and nearly stopped driving
because we had no vision!!
So now we are back to our daily grind,
Our Bathurst Bloggers meet
we have all left behind;
With our purchases, presents, photos and memories
our lives will be complete;
until next year when Bathurst is where
we Batty Bloggers will Meet!!!!
Thanks must go to our Bathurst Blog meet Mumma
for organising a fabulous weekend.
And thank you to each of the Batty Bloggers who attended for making it a weekend of fun, laughs and inspiration!!!!
That is all from me today - I will be back later in the week to show you my beautiful swap present and all the goodies I purchased!!
Have a great week!!
