A Postcard a Day - Friday 13 Nov 2015

Good Morning! It's nearly weekend!

Today I am linking up with Friday Smiles at Annie's A Stitch in Time. 

I have so much to be thankful for that I don't know where to start.
The building work is progressing at a good pace. Next week I will have some photos to show you.

Our lovely kitten is growing and is very playful. Again, some photos are forthcoming.

For now I will show you some postcards that will hopefully make you smile:

Yes, it's Inge Look's naughty old ladies again! They obviously have something to celebrate! This card was sent to me recently by Jaka from Slovenia.

Four days later I received another card illustrated by Inge Look:

This one came from Finland and was sent to me by Marit. She writes that Finland is the land of Inge Look, Ahtisaari, Moomin, Nokia, Santa Claus, reindeer, snow, lakes, forests, archipelago, sauna and  much more. Now I know who Santa Claus is, and Moomin,


but Ahtisaari I had to look up. 

Marti Ahtisaari is a former president of Finland and a Nobel Peace Prize Laureate. He is an expert in international peace mediation, diplomacy and post-conflict state building.

Marit put an interesting stamp on this card:

The Children of Bodom are a rock band. They are classified as a melodic death metal band, that were formed in 1993. They are one of Finland's best selling artists. The name was inspired by the Lake Bodom Murders, an 1960 unsolved murder case on the shores of Lake Bodom.
Interesting, but it doesn't sound like my cup of tea...

Here's something to make you smile (well, at least those of you that sew):

But this one got me giggling:

So cute!

I wish you all a smiley Friday and a good weekend,

Blessings,
