This photo is of the first (and only) Geocache we found. I find the idea of Geocaching exciting and so do the grandchildren. I need an iPhone to do it – but – I am taking a veeeerrrrrryyyyyy long time to get one – so many decisions to make. I’m not good at decisions.
However I’m glad to have at least one find to fulfil this week’s Photo Challenge on Lewesdon Hill in Dorset, with the help of my daughter’s phone. We left a Love Rock in it and added our names and date we found it.

Crafty
My whole house is my studio
Every room a cache
The dining room – full of beach clean finds
The bedroom – yarny stash
My kitchen has experiments
From mould growth to tea bags drying
The spare room houses WIPs and HOTHs
And other things I trying
Obsessions and excitement
Fills every single day
The internet is full of stuff
With which I want to play
Try out this, try out that
and sometimes get things done
But mostly I’m deep in happy-land
Being messy – having fun
The inspiration for this little ditty came when my friend sent me a poem by Dr John Cooper Clarke (see below) as she said it reminded her of me, it prompted me to write the one above
ARTS N’ CRAFTS
Out of bed into the Shed
To paint the wooden roses red
To ride a rocking quadruped
With a big idea in your head
Form and function in a line
The rudiments of good design
From the oaken leg to the fine wine
To table tops of melamine
There’s nothing that you couldn’t make
No effect you couldn’t fake
A pebble sprayed with metal flake
Would make a precious paperweight
Teddy bears to stuff with stuff
Like nylon mink from a lady’s muff
Cotton balls and a powder puff
Pom poms and pocket fluff
Stainless steel and a rock hard aura
The marble glance of a lost explorer
A heavy heart for the love of Nora
Chains of flowers on a draped amphora
Time time time to slay
Each crowded hour of every day
Where indolence is kept at bay
In an arty-crafy kinda way
poem by Dr. John Cooper Clarke
