    Hi all, having a quick visit while having a cuppa and sandwich. Not worth cooking for just me as young `uns are out, but indulging myself with lovely `seedy` bread stuffed full of yummy ham,chutney and cheese. mmmmmm.

    Little lad doesn`t seem to be unduly upset by tummy probs and he`s certainly not off his bottle - can`t get enough. Greedy monster.

    ISOM - re complaints of noise - oooh you are a naughty pair upsetting the nice neighbours - turn the music up really loud so that they can hear the words !!!!

    Aren`t Mrs Twins blankets lovely, nice and bright and cheerful.

    Hope you are taking it easy Kathy, now that the family have gone home. Got to build up your energy levels again. It`s tiring running round after the little darlings isn`t it ? But we love it anyway.

    Nice to see you Maytaurus, tempting us with more goodies. Hope you have had a good day today.

    f1 widow - have you got all your boxes unpacked yet, the important ones anyway with the wool and needles ??

    Jean, hope you are having a good journey and not encountering too many problems.

    Almost finished the two little cardigans so hopefully will get some charity stuff started soon, just have to decide what to do. So many patterns and not enough hands.

    If you are lurking Pam, Lorna etc - hope you are hanging in there, have a ((hug)) if it helps. Spare (((hugs))) for anyone else who needs one, or more, have a few - they are free.

    Bye for now.

    Thanks all...mum is home so thats something. Ive been doing some research re situation and trying not to let it get to me...easier said than done. The bedroom will be carpeted and thats about all I can do so if she wants to take it further thats fine. Mum and I are seriously talking about selling our flats and sharing a house in Cardiff...she loves it here and the hospital staff made her realise how people go out of their way here! Will take time to sort it and I obviously need to know what is going to happen with work before I do anything...
    At last finished sommat and there is now a lovely cat blanket all done from scrach and ready for delivery! Its about all I have been able to manage it recently....cant concentrate! Bed in a mo...felt quite rough this am after wine consumption last night!!!

    morning all. its a bit gloomy here and i know i have to go out and collect some stuff and take library books back, but dont want to get caught in the rain ... any excuse to sit here and crochet.

    i had a stern talking to myself last night about finishing items and sending them off rather than them sitting here gathering dust, so today i am going to buy some needles so that i can finish stuff off on sunday. i also decided (having had a look at some incredible blogs and being spurred on by isoms successes) that i am going to branch out and try something different. i have found a baby jumper that looks too cute that may posted a while ago (i think), so i am going to try that.

    other than that, ladies, i wish you a wonderful day, and if you are poorly or just not in the mood, is send you kind thoughts, hugs and bags of positive vibes.

    Morning ladies, on a very grey day.
    dpixie can you give me a good talking to about finishing things off and getting them posted as well please?
    ISOM that sounds like a good idea for you and your mum, good luck with it.
    Mioliere hope you're feeling a little happier, thinking of you, ((hugs)).
    Love to everyone, got to go and get ready to go out and vote, xxx

    Good Morning to one and all

    ISOM -- Keep on keeping on -- you really will get there- I hope things soon improve for both you,your Mum and all your loved ones

    Dpixie-- Its really grey and horrible here.

    Kinsey -- Hope you did not have to go far!

    Kathy Sending a big hug your way

    I ironed all the options for the wedding last night and gave myself a good MOT. But being an optimist -- they look more fitting for a sunny day and I hate being cold!!

    We are supposed to be flying to Dublin to see Rod Stewart on Monday ( late treat) so I hope this ash disappears again. Cold north winds and ash we can do without!!

    I am going to take the pictures of the latest lappys to show how wonderful collective efforts are. Just what we all need on a dull day.

    I am so pleased that paople have enjoyed the little challenge and thanks again. Will let you know when the parcels drop through the door

    Lots of gentle thoughts and love to one and all

    Hope you can see your squares Seakay and Pippa S' friends too

    The other two have come together because DDIL arrived with a bag of squares she had unearthed at the school she works and we made it a combined effort to make these two

    My favourite
