My month in numbers - July x

Here we are again at the end of another month, how quickly they keep passing! I love this alternative way to record your life following Julie Kirk's original concept.
July.
2 - Harriet & Matt completing Discover 2 kayak course.
£231.58 - amount of cash I spent on uniform in the school shop & that doesn't include shoes & shirts!!
£27.21 - Got stung for this amount of duty when shipping these iphone cases from the States.
17 - blog posts written this month - my average this year.
148 - number of fabric pieces sewn together to make this quilt top.
54 - miles return to visit my friend Jilly & her 2 gorgeous Grandsons.
5 - olympic tickets to join a crowd of 18,290 to watch Japan beat Canada 2-1 & Sweden beat South Africa 4-1 with only 1 yellow card.
 1 - recipe this month, a very tasty honeycomb.
1.4457 - exchange rate for Australian dollars to the pound, needed for our holiday next month.
This month would not be complete for me without these stats...
30th - Olympic Games, 3rd time in London, 204 countries competing & 3 amazing medals for Team GB so far & hundreds of hours glued to the fab BBC TV coverage.

Many thanks for looking

  1. Ooh ... I wonder if 'Olympics' will be the recurring theme across July's My Month in Numbers posts? And maybe next month's too ... and I never thought to mention it!

    Mine could have been something like '15 minutes: how long I held out before openly weeping over the incredible opening ceremony!'

    The quilt looks great [but that water looks cold!]- enjoy your holiday!

  3. It's a very nice idea to collect some Olympic statistics. i'm no sports fan, so I thought I wouldn't be interested, but it has managed to suck me in..
