Tincleton 2012

Last weekend I spent a crafty weekend back at Tincleton in the depths of Dorset with my wonderful friends Julie S, Anna, Ellen, Fleur, Ali, Julie A & Sue. Unfortunately there were a few unable to make it this time because of other commitments but hope they will be with us again in October. We usually go every year but we have such an fantastic time we felt we couldn't wait a year to go again. I'm very lucky to have these ladies as amazing friends and talk about laugh, well we didn't stop all weekend! It was self catering accomodation and we all mucked in with cooking etc. We ate far too much but hey, isn't that what these weekends are about??

Most of us are scrapbookers so we're keen to take good photos that we can scrap. Tincleton is the most beautiful place which used to be a farm. It has it's own small lake which honestly is the perfect country setting. Every time we go we always have perfect weather!

Anyway, this photo says it all for me. Great friends, fantastic company and a laugh a minute.
Rock on October when we shall do it all for the fourth time!

It's my MIL's birthday today so I'll be back later with the card I've made for her.

Nine go mad in Dorset!

I've have had the most amazing weekend away with 8 wonderful ladies! Talk about gut busting laughter - I have honestly never laughed so much in all my life.

We stayed at Tincleton Lodge which is a gorgeous 5 bedroomed farm cottage in Tincleton, nr Dorchester in a rural part of Dorset. I can only describe it as heaven. The house is simply gorgeous with 4 bathrooms and a wonderful area for the 9 of us to craft. I am surprised we didn't blow the place up though as we all had daylight lamps - the electricity bill was probably a bit higher than usual...ooops!

Who wouldn't want to wake up to this every morning.

It was our second year at Tincleton and after a having such fun last year I never would of thought we'd have the same amount of fun this - but we did! The weather was beautiful, the company the best, food - to die for and I can't wait for next year!

Here we all are in one of our many group shots...
from front to back - Chris, Julie, Ali, Me, Julie, Katherine, Brenda, Ellen & Fleur.

Thank you all for the best weekend ever ladies!

I did actually have a VERY productive weekend and I'll be back later to show you one of the things I made.

See you later!
