We all got an unusual wake-up call here in Cambridge today. An air display!
When I say Air Display ... I actually mean one airplane ... an American Hercules ... with an American test pilot practicing his stunts for Fairford Air show at the weekend ... quite spectacular it was over a bowl of Bran Flakes! For all you Hercules boffins out there ... firstly you have come to the wrong blog and secondly I am not sure if it was a 'J' or a 'K' ... John did say but I got bored at "it's a ..." and switched off ... while still nodding and appearing interested!
This is my desk ... and this is what's on it and if you are wondering why I am showing you ... well I am joining in with the published WOYWW challenge run by the charismatic and very lovely Julia.
Okey Dokey ... I am off to fix a rather annoying and probably ultra obvious solution problem ...
Have a good day!
Laters!

Lovely tidy desk! Great creation, love your rose.
Lovely art hun... loving those colours :O)) We had an air show here on saturday... five Spitfires in formation... there is an airfield just up the road...was amazing... and then there is some daft beggar doing loop the loops and stalling his engines... so I think the plane is going to drop out of the sky... eeek! Would have loved to see the Hercules...but I am more of a Lancaster Bomber girl meself ROLFMAO
Nodding and pretending to be interested............... I know that lol! Great work xx
what ? .. the pilot was doing the stunts actually over a bowl of bran flakes ? .. blimey he must have been low to the ground lol :D x Lovely pink rose too .. looking forward to hearing about what you & Heidi have planned !! xx Take care
How spoilt are yuo, your own air display, lol. Love that art, tis gorgeous.
Hi Linda - lovely stuff again. I followed your tutorial for the roses last week, it was really easy and they turned out perfect - thank you - Jacqueline xx
Love your 'dream', it seems no matter what you put together it's looks gorgeous! Now, if that were me, A bit of spotty paper and some tin foil, would look like a bit of spotty paper and some tin foil!!

Impressively tidy Linda, and well organised too! Love your rose piece which I find enjoyably PINK!!
Great card. We get Hercules over us on a regular basis but they don't do stunts!! Lucky you.
Who has kidnapped Linda and is masquerading as her with a tidy desk? If it weren't for the signature flower I would assume Linda was locked in a cupboard and some imposter had taken over her desk for the week!
:)
Mary Anne (who's desk is also far tidier than normal - or was at 6 AM)
I love it when you see an unusual aeroplane totally out of the blue. We had a hercules fly over extremely low, just skimming the tree tops, when we were camping in May! I couldn't tell you what letter it was either lol! gorgeous pink rose, very neat desk!!! ;)
Lovely project today.

Very neat desk, neat, gorgeous artwork and neat air display and over breakfast too. Tracy Evans x
What a stunning card, love the flower, I have just bought some of those round storage jars this afternoon for my beads
Me thinks you need to mess that desk up a tad!!!! Luvverly artwork though and so glad you got your problem fixed!!!
L. x
Beautiful card, and you're looking very organised this week!
I think as your desk is so tidy, you can't be doing enough craft!! Love the flower - beautiful!
Tracy :)x
ah - no one does more beautiful flowers than you (in my opinion, tahnks for the share,
by the way - up here in Derby (Rolls Royce) we have a flight worthy spitfire that has been known to do low fly past victory rolls during the concert in the park (Darley Abbey) - stunning engineering.
Just dropping by ...didnt WOYWW ...not long realized it was Wednesday lol. I so love what you are doing ...you seem to have been truely inspired by your time in the US of A.
When you mentined Cambridge my mind drifted back to the late 70's and early 80's when I went, with friends to the folk Festival. It was great back then ...all ages except teenagers ...then about '86 they took over ...shame.
Hi Linda
lovely tidy desk, gorgeous card, oh what a wake up call, did ya manage to get any pics? have good day, sue,x

Great desk - LOVE the rose.

Lovely design, as usual, Linda. I never tire seeing those roses. Glad to read you are short, too. We short people have to stick together. My favorite short joke (and I'm not normally fond of short jokes): Short people are the last to know when it's raining and the first to know when there's a flood.
BTW, since you live in Cambridge, do you ever get to see the "Lewis" TV series being filmed?
I am impressed... it all looks awfully neat! The art iss fab as always but I am with Spyder on this... mine would also look like a bit of spotty paper... not arty farty at all!
Gorgeous flower...and a very tidy desk! x
It's looking suspiciously tidy on that there desk. Where's the real Linda - what have you done with her??
HI Linda. Glad you saw the Hercules. I am under the flight path for Farnborough airport and we have the Farnborough air show starting next week, but this week they are validating and practising, so lots of noise here.
Used one of your designs as inspiration last week and made a Christmas hanger - it's gone down well.
Thanks alot. Take care.
Luv B xxxx
Super tidy today Linda !!
Very tidy desk and another piece of amazing art.....I hope I don't have to be that tidy on Saturday!!!
Looking forward to meeting you too.
xx
Love the art work there the rose is very pretty! we have an air show every year in Southend too and the red arrows always have a practice the day before, they fly over our garden, its great! Have a great week! Tracey x
ooo i love display planes, we are off to sunderland air show in a couple of weeks. Did you not cast aside your brekkie and dash out to take photos?
Beautiful sample on a very (too) tidy desk. And you say that I'm the tidy queen??
hugs,
isa xx
That's a very neat desk this morning Linda :) Nice to see the tote back in full use with tools all reaplaced as you work :) ......... are you feeling ok?
Omigosh, your desk is very tidy. Love teh text on that metal - stamp od=r folder or a majig I don't know of? As for the obvious solution...gin and tonic.
Lovely piece of art there and a lovely tidy desk too!
I listen to BBC Cambs first thing and they were talking about the Hercules this morning - sounds exciting and more fun to watch than Breakfast TV!
Is that a book or a hanging? either way it's lush
Love the creation on your desk. Going to check out the grunge rose tutorial - I need the help!

Wow Linda, it's tidy!!! Love air displays, going to one in August. We often get Mitchell B25's over our us as The Yankee Air Museum is right down the street from our house, beautiful, beautiful planes.

I live right by Fairford, so I'm pretty used to Hercules planes going overhead - noisy, aren't they :)
While I'm here...could you pop past UKStampers and the CJ thread when you have a chance? Efemera is doing a roll call of who has what...
lol with the comment thanks, and you can pop around any time. I had to zoom in to have a really good neb on this image cannot wait to see your next submission for WOYWW
Hugs Kate xx
