Three Things

First thing, a housekeeping tip (rare and unusual from me). If you happen to hoover up a wasp into your bagless vacuum, remember to empty the cannister outside. The wasp will not be dead. It will be angry though. No humans were harmed in this mishap but it was a right b**tard to get out the house again.

Secondly, Emily has discovered my new app A Beautiful Mess. She was very sure you would want to see what she has been up to with it.


And last, but certainly not least, I was playing today.


The question is, will I get it finished for tomorrow? Stay tuned.

  4. I remember hoovering up a HUGE spider one night and then had to leave the hoover outside overnight because I couldn't empty it or leave it in the house!!

  9. Why did you hoover the wasp up? I won't even empty hoovered up spiders from the 'bagless box thing' in the house!

  10. Great blocks!
    I always leave the hoover running for ages if I hoover anything live up!! And then leave it for the man of the house to deal with!!

  12. Wasps must be like mice when you suck them up, can't say I blame them, really...love Emily's photos, another friend also mentioned that same app yesterday - better check it out. finally as for your playing...I would expect nothing less and I have no doubts you will get it finished.

  16. I think the trick is to leave the wasp in there until it petrifies (that takes about 10,000 years )

  17. Oh I dodn't know you were making these for tomorrow - is it a mini?? The blocks look great as does Emily's mosaic :) Yes, why were you hoovering a wasp up? Don't you know the RSPCA will be knocking on your door?

  21. Love the app and the blocks are amazing. But poor you with the wasp. I'd be running round the house like Mr Bean, legs and arms all ways, open mouthed and screaming screaming .

  22. I only empty my bag when it is 100% full and the vacuum won't pick up anything else .. that way any live creatures picked up are sure to be dead.

    Love what you've started. Hope you get it done in time.

  25. A Beautiful Mess is very cute but I fear I will end spending loads on the additional design packs.

    ReplyDelete
  26. She was right of course! Tell her well done!

    Why hurt the poor wasp!?? Would hate to be the first thing you saw after you were sucked up by a huge hoover!

    Gorgeous blocks - what's the hurry!?
