#TheGallery The Usual Friday Magic On 11.11.11

It was 11.11.11. It was supposed to be the luckiest day of the year. The day that most looks like corduroy, according to The Guardian (was tempted to link to the article but you can google it). I had  been looking forward to it for months - I can't quite remember why now but surely something special would happen. And, in the end, I spent it much like any other regular Friday. However, even regular Fridays have their own little bit of  magic. For a start I turned this...






into this...






Go over to The Gallery at Sticky Fingers to see what everyone else did on 11.11.11.

    Matron - I'd love to but I'm going to Honest Mum first as she has chocolate :)

    Gemma - I know, me too. And fyi, smug as a bug in a rug, to corrupt a well-known phrase. :)

    Wombat - yes sometimes I find it easier on the eyes if I wear sunglasses in the house on a Friday afternoon. ;)

    M-aged-M - Is that from your own Bishop?
