Sounds so exotic to me. I've lived my whole life in NC, USA, never been out of the country. I'm jealous

[@ChristinesHomeAffairs]

We're lucky to be able to use Table Tennis as our way to travel the country. Otherwise, I'd probably stay at home😁

Brilliant “makes” to take with you. Good luck to you and Chris. Hope you need lots of tissues 😉. It’s amazing when I look round my home how many home made things there are. Enjoy your sporting holiday xx

[@ChristinesHomeAffairs]

Thanks Christine. I'm always amazed at how much I have lying around too😀

[@jesspeak7543]

All the best for a successful time at your events Christine and Chris. Have a wonderful holiday. My trip to Tasmania in August has been postponed, so I am very much looking forward to seeing your videos of the areas you visit. Tassie reminds me so much about Scotland and the village where I spent my first 12 years. Each area is so diverse and beautiful. I wish you both happy times. ❤❤ 🇦🇺

[@ChristinesHomeAffairs]

Thanks Jess. It's such a lovely place to visit😁

Hello Christine, its so exciting to hear that you will be in Launceston, hope you can make it to our Evandale Sunday Market, its on every Sunday. I have a market stall and would love to meet you as I have picked up so much knowledge from you. Enjoy your time here hopefully the weather is starting to clear!

[@ChristinesHomeAffairs]

Hi Magda. I just looked it up. Although it's not far, Chris and I both have scheduled matches on Sunday morning at 9am which run until 12.30 or so. Chris will have another match in the afternoon. It's a shame, I really love markets😀

[@ChristinesHomeAffairs]

Magda I've just checked out the market. If we finish early enough, we may just make it. What is your stand called?

[@magdaavens4233]

@@ChristinesHomeAffairs Hi Christine my stall is called Taska Tasmania, I am at the Collins St end of the market, which is the opposite from the car park entrance. Hope to meet you kind regards Magda

[@sharonwilson8208]

That looks like my daughter at Christmas time. She raids my sewing room and poaches my projects. Then gkves things away for gifts. I told her she's going to learn to sew lne lf these days 😅. I should take it as a compliment, as everyone looks forward to what they're going to get. My ex-husband will ask if "I know how to sew this, that..." Of course I do, after watching about 20 tutorials. He at least pays for the fabric. We've done this many times. It should be a compliment.😊❤😊

Brilliantly timed video for me, we visit a little holiday home and I need to make me a few of these to have ready for each trip. The folding shopping bags would be handy to have in the glove compartment of the car as always end up popping into a shop when out but never have a bag. Good luck for more wins!
