gurr

I would not have mined the usual eyes closed.

The photo makes me look like a child.

I am wearing the elizabethan gown with corset but have my arm in front of me with braids draped over it so you can not see the cleavage.

hopefully the photo with mum in the Wednesday Blenheim paper will be better. mum is wearing my navy blue with silk dress which I would have preferred to have been photoed in.

I had forgotten that the saturday and wednesday paper are delivered to everyone in Blenheim

Perhaps I should cut my hair short again it did make me look closer to my age.

Why do I agree to such things

2008-07-16T07:51:00Z

A medieval fundraiser feast in Blenheim for at max 200people on 9th August.

practically I thought in my mined at most they most likely to sell 100 ticket because unlikely to be avertised well.

little did I know when I agreed that I would be having photos of me taken today for the newspaper.

The Marlborough express is doing a human interest story on me and my interest in medieval things including talking about southron gaard most likely this Saturday
+ Fount page in the Blenheim midweek mail is going to be an article about the up coming feast
+ plus mum and I are going to be featured it the cook page with a medieval recipe.

I am now getting nervious as to how many tickets we will sell. and how I am to cook everything even with lots & lots of prep work

Finished and handed in Castle Sculpture will post photos when I find cord for camera.

went to library afterward and discovered they were having library cancelled book sale :).
Marlbrough library is good if books are donated and they already have copies the donated books go in the sale too.
picked up a copy of the second anita blake book in very good condition for 50 cents.
