    Pam - good to see you posting and hope your cold finally goes very soon. I agree about the tiredness - it's possibly the most annoying symptom of this particular cold. I sat down after lunch today and dozed off instantly; the thing is, I woke up feeling freezing cold and even more tired, so I don't feel as if I've had a good nap.

    K2tog - hope you feel better soon.

    I'm going to have a cuppa then sit down with my crochet.

  • Hello, everyone
    I havent posted on this thread before but I am wondering if any of the knitters here can help me? I am looking for a pattern of timmy the lamb glove puppet by alan dart it was in a womans weekly magazine. My little girl is timmy mad and would love this for christmas, I would be very happy to give a donation to the charity of your choice if anyone has it and would allow me to borrow it.
    Thank you

    Sunflowergirl - I don't have a copy of the pattern but Googling revealed that there are some for sale on ebay

    ISOM - thanks for doing the card from us all, what a lovely idea! From me:
    Get well soon May - your posts always cheer me up and show me the good in the world. Love, Seakay

    Hello and welcome sunflowergirl :wave:


    Well I had a good finishing off night last night and my WIP bag has emptied a bit ....but there are still loads in there:o

    I also managed a santa, did 2 crochet start rounds in black for the feet and they worked well, also did a couple of stockings so all in all a good night.

    Have sent the R/W/B items off to Lou for Em, and almost got a full parcel for Shelley.

    Hope all the poorlys feel better soon, so much illness about so keep warm and drink lots....no NOT alcohol :rolleyes::rotfl:
    Off for a :coffee:now
    Have good days all

    Kinsey, I want to make egg custards, treacle tarts, and maids of honour, but it has to be just the right colour for cake pastry. Cream doughnuts are orangey brown and that's just as hard to find. Might have to resort to fondant fancies!

  • Pol - I used beige for the pastry and my doughnuts too - just look a bit under cooked.

  • hi all
    i hope everyone is well
    im so sorry to hear poor maytaurus is not well, if im not too late could you please add my good wishes to her on the card.

    went to see beyonce on sunday she was fantastic, the singing dancing and costumes were faultless she has certainly gone up in my estimation as a very talented young woman.

    finally got the back finished on mums cardi so im sewing up at the mo and have then just got the button bands to do and i can gt back on poppies:T

    ive got to do some baking on friday the choir are doing a bake sale so ive promised hem 2 dozen muffins

    sending hugs and kind thoughts to all who need them
    SPC~12 ot 124

    In a world that has decided that it's going to lose its mind, be more kind my friend, try to Be More Kind
  • [FONT=Arial, sans-serif]Update on Maytaurus, had a quick e mail from Russell to bring everyone up to date, he apologizes for not having been in touch sooner but has moved in with his Grandfather and Grandmother to look after them and only has access to the internet when he gets back home, which isn't too often at present. [/FONT]


    “[FONT=Arial, sans-serif]Maytaurus has had some stents fitted and has now been moved back to Crewe. She is looking and sounding a lot better now and has had a shift of bed in the ward as she was too noisy, so that can be taken as a positive sign that she is now on the mend. Things are slowly but surely getting better and hopefully it won't be long before everyone is back home and life can continue as normal.”[/FONT]


    [FONT=Arial, sans-serif]I have passed on every ones, love, best wishes and prayers for when he next visits, I also have the hospital address if you contact me I will pass it on. [/FONT]


    [FONT=Arial, sans-serif]So it will be a wee while yet before we get her lovely posts back, but we can all continue to send good thoughts for a speedy recovery.[/FONT]
