As the closing ceremony continues on the telly ... lets reflect a little
today it seems only fitting I was on my own cultural Olympic marathon of sorts ...
you know me ... when I get in my groove ...
so I started this morning ... with
Lynne's Fat Jacks ...
and
Summersville!
Yes I cut into the monstrous pile of gorgeousness!
I think Lucie was being subliminal when she designed this,
everyone should by Summersville imho!
and so, after a few hours ... I have The Best of British ...
Fat Jack Blocks designed by
