    Glad to be of help - maybe I could be Maytaurus`s apprentice :rolleyes: ;)

    Oh dear, just had a call from one of the girls at cardiac rehab. DH was in at his class and he`s not been feeling too great, so she`s away to take him up to the coronary care dept to have some tests done. He was very tired and not feeling 100 per cent yesterday and I did suggest he should miss the class today, however the girls in there are very good at keeping an eye on him. Fingers crossed he`ll get home after the tests.

    Off to give the wee spotty one his lunch before his mum comes to collect him, he`s decided he wants a chicken tikka sandwich :p - I`ll have plain chicken thanks.

    Back later.

    I've just posted a photo of my ripple blanket on the Wooligans. It has a couple of mistakes in it, which I think I have hidden by the cunning way I folded it!

    Welcome to you sylv1 :wave: and anyone I may have missed, glad you decided to join our happy little band.

    chalky - just had a look at the album, the photos are lovely and the dresses are beautiful, and what lovely weather

    Elaine - hope your OH is alright now. Thanks for the link I will sign up when I finish on here,

    JackieO - nice to see you over here. My DGD wants me to teach her to knit, so I popped in to one of our local shops and got her a childs knitting kit for £1 a real bargain, shes only 5 so the needles are just right as they are very short plastic ones.

    Shelley - :eek::eek::eek: thats one thing I could'nt do, I go weak at the knees just thinking about it

    Better go dinner is almost ready
    back later

    Hi Everybody, sorry I have been yet again missing - no I haven't managed to clear the barn or even start it for that matter, so you will have to hang on a bit longer for that visit folks. Welcome to all the new people - hope you all settle in nicely.
    PSSO - hope your DH is feeling a wee bitty better, and your chickenpop grandchild is soon on the mend too.
    CHALKY I am off to look at your wedding photies - then nag the DS yet again no doubt.
    TIGHT AS - what great wedding photies - only just caught up with them,
    Well I have had a really eventful week - neighbours calves went out into the field and three of them promptly left - by leaping over the electric fencing, its a bit of a drama when they are first introduced to the fresh air/green grass malarky, also he had de-horned them prior to release so they were flighty to say the least - like Kathy we have had a fair few thunder storms too which doesn't help them all to settle but they did look so daft gambolling (SP) around all over the place. All settled now so I hope not to find them in my garden helpiing themselves to the apples! Managed to finish packing up the stuff to send to Loving Hands for the Algerian Action project washables - DH will take the huge box to the PO tomorrow - I cannot face yet another shouting match with Atilla the Hun, she likes him tho'. I have used up all the towels I had hunted out so I expect that's the end of that little number for me, but hope to get stuck into some shorts and frocks, then it will be back to the knitting. Will post my totals on Sunday, hope you all have a fantastic weekend - and the sun shines on everybody too! Cuddles for everybody as well - they are free special offer this week you get two for one!

    Started a Sands blanket this afternoon - DH has been admitted to coronary care ward ` for a wee while`. It seems as if they are going to bring his op forward - was scheduled for 8th July - as he has been having problems. Have to wait and see what the surgeon says, so that will probably be the beginning of the week before he shows up.:confused:

    Got a fair bit of the blanket done this afternoon as he was dozing on and off during visiting time.
    Off to do a bit more before trying to get some sleep.:rolleyes:

    Looks like it might be a long night though.

    ps Had a look at the photos earlier today, they are lovely and so good that the weather was kind to you and they didn`t have to be taken inside. Ours were as it was April showers that day, and it`s just not the same as having a beautiful background.

    Oh Elaine - (((((hugs)))))
    He is in the best place though if he is going to be a worrisome one! And it sounds like they are keeping a close eye on him which is good. Thinking of you and your family, and doing my best to will your worries away.
    Hi to all the newbies - welcome to the woolly madhouse.
    Hope everyone is well and happy, (((((hugs))))) for those who want or need them - I've taken advantage of Roamin's kind offer and had 241!
