...........sometimes we do go out and play.  Maybe not what you thought Mr & Mrs Craftyribbons would get up to, but  I spotted this, and I thought of work........

.....it just made me giggle.  Cross stitch on a car, not using embroidery thread or even ribbon, but it is cross stitch!

What were we doing looking at cars?  Well............... we have a bad boy in the family................

Meet Scooby.  He is (one) of Tony's cars and he had an outing to Japfest at the weekend.  Tony watched all the cars on the track, while I photographed all that moved.  I have just got a point and shoot camera, and I pointed it at everything!!!!! 

Scoobies are known for the back ends!

This tickled me, a line of big laddies showing off their bottoms.

I did try and persuade Tony that scooby could do with a re-spray

Nope that did not go down well. Tony driving a PINK car, a PINK Scooby car!  I bought him a pink shirt a while back and told him it was raspberry.  He wore it quite happily until a customer at an exhibition asked him for a pink ribbon the same colour as his shirt!

Back to ribbons - you all liked the stripe ribbons I see.  Nice summery, deckchair-ish ribbons I would agree, but today I am freezing.  I have my body warmer, scarf and gloves on and have even thought about making a hot water bottle!!  Why has it gone so cold.  It is pouring with rain, we have a metal roof and the rain is so heavy we can hardly hear each other.  I have spent the last two days making things for a special event we are holding next week (will tell you more later in the week) but at this rate I should have made them waterproof!!!

Syd picked the winner of this weeks Friday FREEBIE (sorry been moonlighting as a portrait photographer, Syd had been watching me and wanted some photos taken! WOW look at that white background.)
