Morning all. I was so impressed by all the fabulous entries to my 'Shades of Blue' challenge but it's time to move on over at Cardz4guyz. Our new theme is 'Age is just a Number'. I am fully intent on not acting my age. I always said I would grow old disgracefully. Despite my body screaming at me that I am the wrong side of 50, Wednesday evenings see me scampering (ok, scampering may be pushing it a bit) about like a kid on the local cricket pitch. The under 11s think it's hilarious to make me run about. I try to teach them to do as I say not as I do. I can't throw for toffee but I can teach them the technique. I bowl at least one wide every over but I can show them how to do it properly. As for my batting - well, nowadays I take my glasses off, hand them to the umpire, squint and pray. They still love it if they can get me out.
Anyway, you don't get many lady cricketing images - and besides it's Cardz4guyz - so I used this fabulous image from Dr Digi's House of Stamps.
Your old dude is sporty and perfect for our "age is not a number" challenge!! You offer great inspiration for those who decide to play along with us over at Cardz 4 Guyz!!
ReplyDeleteA super card Dawn, a fun image - I have a very strange picture of you playing cricket in my head now, I think you should get someone to video it for us!

ReplyDeleteThis is a fun little story and a fun little card to go along with it! Trust me, I'm long on the other side of 60 (make that 70 now) so I sit and watch everyone else have fun with their games :) I'm officially a spectator now :)
