Driving licence?
Won the lottery?
New puppy?
I asked DH what would change his life and he said sex change or being left a string of seaside donkeys, so I wont be asking him again!0 -

:j:j:j:j:j:jHi everyone
Well we are completely weddinged out !! The 5th this year and 3 in the last 2 weeks. But lovely days for all and happy memories to store away !!
Long journey home today and lots of unpacking after happy camping in Swanage in the Sunshine Bus -- and the sun shone !!
Buster the puppy dog has doubled in size and is very Springy
So I have skimmed through pages and pages of all your news. Too much to comment on everything especially as I can hardly keep my eyes open but Many Congratulations to all those who have had lovely news.Wonderful baby news and adoption progress. Truly wonderful !!
Gentle thoughts to all those who have been feeling poorly,sad or have had a difficult time of late
Well thanks for all the lovely parcels which were waiting for me here. Just lovely and I will get straight back into the sewing mode tomorrow ( after shopping:mad::mad: washing:mad::mad: etc etc )
I did lots of knitting, crocheting etc whilst I was away and have a story about a ball of wool but I will tell you about that after a sleep.
Well its lovely to be back in contact and I have missed you all. Thanks again for all the lovely parcels

Hello Chalky nice to have you back. 3 weddings in 2 weeks.....eek! did you have a new hat for each one? My parcel to you will get posted tomorrow, can't wait to hear the Story of the Wool.0

delain, could the lump be sewn, stuffed and eyes put on? His name could be Lump.0

Morning all, nice sunny morning here so I`ll get the washing dry :j anyway.
Roamin in the gloamin - yes Jean, the papering`s all done, for the moment anyway. DGS has to decide what he wants in his room now, but his Dad might be fit enough to do it himself - we`ll see. I actually enjoyed doing it as I haven`t done any papering since my heart attack 3 years ago - it`s inspired me to get cracking here at home as things are getting a bit old and tired looking - gosh just like me then !!!!
Kinsey - your contribution to the Loving Hands stall arrived this morning, the little crocheted oriental dolls are so cute, I love them, thank you so much for helping.
Chalky - nice to see you back - hope you`re recovering from all your wedding shenanigans. 3 in one year would be bad enough, but in a fortnight :eek: you`ll gather I`m not exactly a party animal( rather stay at home with my knitting).
delain - some of the most interesting projects started life as `lumps` :think: keep going.
Off to hang out the first load of washing and get the next lot in - where does it all come from ??
