    Happy birthday Maytaurus, hope that you are having a lovely day and that you are being treated to all good things (as you should be on your birthday).

    Quite a miserable day here, but it saves me watering the garden, so i am not going to complain. have been very productive here today, have cleaned the house and have been to the gym and have now finished my breakfast, so , its looking good. i suppose i will have to fill my time for the next few hours with some knitting, what a trial!!!

    Well, i suppose i had better get off and do some knitting while i can, i am sure something nasty will pop up in the next few hours for me to do, so may hay and all of that.

    have a lovely day all and hugs to those who need them and smiles to those who dont.

    Chalky - thanks for the welcome back. I've really missed being here! Everything's going reasonably well though not as fast as I would like! I'm still unpacking as we get more and more of the furniture in the house, so we're very busy these days.

    My Mum, LilyMay, is in the process of moving house so her knitting is on hold at the moment. She has loads of things to add, though, but they're all packed away. She is moving back to our home town and will be closer to my sister (Worleite on here, though she hardly ever posts! I must nag her a bit more - I think she's shy!). They're planning on knitting together in the afternoons, so there'll be a lot more items being produced, I think.

    Shez - I think I have some 5ps in a jar somewhere, and I also have a film canister, so I'll put what 5ps I have in it and get them off to you.

    Kinsey - you'll get a warm welcome from everyone on here - we're a lovely bunch! It'll be good getting to know you.

    Well, I'd better get on with some more unpacking.

    See you all later.

    KathyXX
