I took the Valerian and Marshmallow again last night and had a better night - not dream free, but just less annoying - it still tasted vile though. At least I have finished a golden syrup jar today so once it is washed out the Valerian can go in there which might stop me catching a whiff of it every time I go into the kitchen.

I still say you're crazy. But then maybe that's not a new observation..?

I'll see if I can find a link to the bolero pattern - I think it would look very good in white - I'm off to see if I can find it .

And as if by magic: http://www.simplyknitting.co.uk/page/simplyknitting?entry=simply_knitting_issue_47_on it's the one on the front cover. If you scroll right down you will also see free patterns for crochet butterflies - specially for you BZ.

Dudes - you know it's cheating when you add after I've read your posts, right? :rolleyes:
Am I the only one not seeing the butterfly thing..?

Told you I was half asleep - try here: http://www.simplyknitting.co.uk/page/simplyknitting?catname=/FREE%20Patterns! I had clicked on the Free Patterns link and forgotten I'd done it :rolleyes:.

Who said 'crazy'? - I think that should be Still Crazy - one of my favourite films .

Evening All,

Here's a few of the photos from my digital imaging course: http://s458.photobucket.com/albums/qq308/Serva1an/Course%20pics/

I've only been going for a few weeks and just started photo restoration today so there'll be some interesting before and after pics once I have mastered the technique.

The course itself is free and they are extremely 'disabled friendly'. I take my own laptop as it is easier for me to use the integral screen - rather than a conventional mouse, although they did say they would get me a track ball if it would help.

I have to say I find it very therapeutic tinkering on with images in my spare time and I'm hoping to go on to do further courses in actual photography to improve my picture taking.

Ahh! finally remembered what I wanted to say. Taking Co-Codamol and Tramadol together can depress your breathing function as far as I am aware. Tramadol can also be quite addictive but who cares if it works eh!
Unfortunately, I don't get the woozy feeling with codeine. Shame really

It's only in the last few months I've been forcing myself to get out and about. I always regret it if I don't.
It's part of that "not letting illness get the better of me". am also lucky that I live very close to these things that I choose to use spoons on.
BZ, I don't know if it is possible to email ACAS? Or could you telephone for him and give a brief outline?

I don't know what else I was going to ramble on about. My brain has stalled now. and the cat wants my lap back.

Beautiful Unity! I love photography. I have always wanted one of those Andy Wharhol Marilyn Monroe type-piccies.
You're all such a clever bunch!

I don't understand it - every time I try the link it works - then once it appears on this page it doesn't. Never mind - here's another link to the actual patterns themselves, but you'll need to go through all three pages to find the three different butterflies - I think they are really clever http://www.mypicot.com/crochet_patterns_flowers_vol01.html

I love the dragonfly on the second page - it's brill .

The dragonfly is ace I wanted to have butterflies AND dragonflies but dragonfly niceties are harder to come by

Any of the half decent antiinflammatories provoke asthma, apparently. The codeine causes constipation (excellent with IBS :rolleyes:) I heard that about Tramadol, and if you always got the spacey feeling I can see why(!), which is why I only use it sparingly. The codeine only gives me the woozy feeling when combined with (the ill-advised) cocodamol.

I can completely understand that. I refuse to stop doing the dog walking (when I'm not wheezing etc) on the same basis.

Um... I'll attempt to check it out tomorrow I guess. I'm so stressed out right now that I can hardly think straight myself, if you know what I mean.
