Maria(Magnificent seamstress)Barnard

Just thought I'd remind the world that I'm actually a seamstress with over 20 years experience (yes I'm that old) .No job too small

I've just spotted this outside @browns_chester. Who is responsible for the upkeep and repair of the building? @ChesterArchSoc do you know?

@seetickets how can i contact an actual person at customer services? Your link does not help at all

It's getting real!

Less than 24 hours to go before I do my first ever talk about @browns_chester Yes I am nervous but hopefully my passion for the subject will come through and any mistakes will be forgiven. I've no idea if anyone is coming, apart from 3 friends. I'm doing it anyway!

The countdown begins. Hopefully some people will be turn up. I've got a lot to talk about. And lots of photos to show off.

Come along and say 'Hi' x

This goes for woods too!

More than at humans

My talk is on the launch day of @heritagechester festival. At @Chester_PH

So this is happening! Come along and hear me waffle on about my favourite building. Have I done any public speaking before? No I am terrified? Yes But I'm sure you all know how passionate I am about the Browns building, so hopefully it will be an interesting talk. And it's free!

Do you remember when you joined X? I do! #MyXAnniversary Good grief. I'm still here just about

A little saunter on the walls to wake me up before work.

I'm actually happy to see rain this morning. If the UK dealt with snow like other countries, i.e. grit everything, I would enjoy it more. Instead I had to walk down my road as the pavements were lethal. Moan over. I love snow iif I don't have to go anywhere.

Today at the shop... I've even put signs on the door!

Nearly got blown away on my new years day stomp down the fields. Ended up in my local church and checked out the musket holes, graffiti and grotesque font face.

Back to work today. I can't imagine that it's going to be massively busy as most people shop online these days. Though I did walk past Zaras and it looked chaotic.

Popped into M&S for my panettone and a calm wander through the streets before the chaos begins 😁

Just bagged myself a ticket to see Paul Simon. Thought they had sold out!

My birthday treat arrived today 😍 @browns_chester Crypt chambers
