Here is a giveaway
and here is a quick showing of what it looks like when used
Have been away for my birthday and so my desk is bare but here are some little figures I got whilst in Whitby ready for my Configuration Box which I have been wanting to make for simply ages. Trouble is I have lost my 'skull with rams horns' which I could swear was sat on my other configuration box and now is NOT!
Am really looking forward to starting it but not sure when that will be so watch out for news of it. In the meantime here are some photos from the Guest House where we stayed in Whitby.
This guy stood outside my bedroom door the whole weekend. He tried to tempt me with sweeties everytime I went past but I stayed away - there was a coffin next to him and I did not fancy going in there.
This bat took rather a fancy to me - it was on my bed!
Loved the Gothic mirror in the bedroom
and how about this bedside lamp?
Breakfast by candlelight in the cellar
and no trip to Whitby would be complete without a picture of
The Abbey
or the Whalebone (given by the Municipality of Anchorage Alaska)
That's it for now folks. Will upload some more pictures and give a bit more blurb about our weekend away - including photos of "Heartbeat" country another day. In the meantime pop over to see what our lovely Julia has to say and look out for lots of other desks and chit chat.
I'll be working on the Oyster Stamps stand at Harrogate this coming weekend. If you are going please pop along and say "hello" to me - I would love to meet you. I'll try to remember to wear my badge. (See you then Joan)

Your weekend away looked like fun! I'd like to go into the draw for Tim's hexagonal die please Neet - I'm not sure if I'm a follower on here, but I have you on my blog list and always follow you from there.
That place would freak me out! Love it though. #34
Morning Neet
Good luck with getting started with the configuration box you have rather a collection of bits and bobs there ready!
Your hotel in Whitby was very Gothic I must say!
Hope you had a great birthday

What a very cool place to stay, definitely different! Interesting reading on the bedside table too.
I'd love to see the Abby.

I've just bought that die, so don't include me in your generous giveaway! Love the pics of your birthday trip, how cool was that! Helen 16
Don't know how you ever slept in that bedroom Neet, or walked past that creepy man, makes me shiver thinking about it. Hope you had a lovely birthday with lots of treats. Would love to go in the pot for the giveaway.
Thanks

Hi Joan...would love to be in the drawer for that Tim H die, I was just looking at it on the web today... Oh my goodness what a guest house...scary. Glad you had a good time, Cheers and happy WOYWW RobynO#24
Fantastic photos Neet. I have passed the hotel many times but never stayed there--now I am tempted :)
Lovely prize you are offering
Love Chrissie x
Oh my God I so want that die, I would just about kill for it. What a fantastic place to stay in, how cool to have all that weird stuff around. Looks like a place of fun.
Happy crafting if you can.

Would love to be included in the draw for the fab TH frameworks die - still can't believe that you are giving it away!!!
That looks like a fabulous guest house to stay in Neet. Hope you had a wonderful birthday. xx
Great giveaway - count me in!
I wondered where you'd wandered off to for this very strange B & B until I made the connection with Whitby - how cool!! Hope you find your ram's head, it's probably right in front of you. Happy WOYWW, Cindy #58
I so enjoyed the pictures...looks like fabulous fun. Thanks for sharing Carole #68
Looks like you had a fab birthday break in one of my favourite places Neet. All the best x Jo #46
Hi Neet - Glad you had a good birthday, looks like you had a fabulous holiday - love the gothic hotel!!! Hopefully see you on Saturday :) Pxx
That looks like an interesting place to spend the night! I'm loving hexagons at the moment, in paper crafting and patchwork. Don't include me in the draw though thanks. I think I have enough dies/punches/EFs to be going on with!

I always love it when you take us out and about, and this place was the BEST. Loved it. Bleubeard wants to play with the bat, too. Thanks for visiting me while I slept. Happy WOYWW from #7.
Neet that die is 'to die' for. It is wonderful and I have signed up to be a follower, just hope it doesn't mean I have to sacrifice all my computing independant to Google.
Looks like you had lots of fun in Whitby, long time since we were there.

Great die I must say !!
What a great bedroom Neet, I would love to spend a night in there! Belated Happy Birthday to you too, hope you had a really good one. I have got my die now so no need to include me in the draw. Hugs, Anne xx
Wow, you know how to pick a location! what fab pics and I love the idea of breakfast by candlelight in the cellar! Have fun in Harrogate!
What a wonderful place to stay. I love the clock in front of the mirror I have one by the same artist but in a red with flashes of blue. They are just gorgeous. Happy crafting, Angela #59
That is quite a place you stayed in! I am not sure it would be my choice, but my son and his partner would love it.
I would love to be in the drawer for that gorgeous die please. i am on your list of followers but I thought it was through Bloglovin'.
Reading the latest exploits of Flat Susan, it sounds as though she is nearing the end of her travels. is she still coming out to Spain. I am not sure I can give her quite such an exciting time as she has had in America, but I am sure she would enjoy some Spanish sunshine. Kate x
WOW Neet, looks like you had a fantastic weekend away for your birthday. What an amazing place you stayed....love all those photos but just can't understand why your friend with the sweets didn't tempt you!!! lol
Hugs.

Super spooky pics of your Whitby trip. Fab pics and you really look good too. I meant to ask if you enjoyed Pickering stop on your homeward trip?
Looks like you had good fun for your birthday jaunt.
love Jo x
WOW! You must have nerves of iron staying in a place like that, It looks great but having that man outside the door...Sorry I would be on the first train home. Looks like you had a fab time though.

Jeepers - I'm not sure I'd be able to sleep in that place!! Beautiful photos of atmospheric Whitby - what a wonderful town. Thank you so much for the giveaway offer - sadly, I'm afraid I already succumbed to this die!!

I would love that die to use when I teach my oldest daughter quilting:) Be much easier than cutting by hand:) See you at Port Sunny. xx
Hope you are feeling better soon. I look forward to meeting up in todmorden Neet.
Take great care

Oh wow - I so envy your trip to Whitby and what a fabulous place you stayed in - and those great little artifacts - brilliant - how wonderful. Looking forward to seeing your finished creation with them
What a fun weekend and I am amazed that the freak outside your room still had candy left lol MY DH would have eaten it all lol hugs Nikki
Please include me too in your giveaway
Opps forgot my Number 10 :)
Don't think that I could have stayed in that hotel Neet, I would have had nightmares for years. Could you please include me in the draw for the TH die, I could do so much with it. Xxx
Oh WOW! This looks like such a fun time! There is a place in Texas that has taken off with the same decor that I have thought about visiting but just haven't. Love all the picture and look forward to more. Thanks for sharing and have a great week. Vickie aka okienurse #72
