Sad and Sulky Folksy Friday

So today I thought I had a genius idea for a blog. I’ve seen several people do an “alphabet” theme over a course of weeks, and I liked that idea. But to try and put a wee twist on it I thought I’d try and do a “Greek Alphabet” theme.

So I sat down today, full of ambition and hope looking for “Alpha” related things. Eventually, I gave up. I realised I was being quite ambitious here, and the more I thought about the rest of the alphabet the more my hope and ambition dwindled. I mean, omicron? What the hell would I do for that? I don’t speak any Greek so I don’t even have words to relate them to. No. Bad idea.

This realisation made me quite sad and pouty so you all go. A grey and miserable theme, but made of lovely Folksy items. (I really do like all the items in here, by the way. It’s the theme that’s grumpy. Not these items!)
