    Hope you are all keeping warm - I have been going to work - though it takes ages. Hubby gave up at first hurdle - !!!!ed me off he could of made it. I am so very cold, will get blanket until he is ready for work - he doesn't want to get bus.
    This is what annoys me about snow, so many of my lazy colleagues couldn't be arsed to walk/bus to work last time even though they are closer to work than I am! :mad:
    Luckily it's not happened here yet, as we've only had a little bit of snow.

    Sorry to hear about your other trouble Sweetcarer, have a big *hug* from me.

    I'm going to have a stitching weekend this weekend, just me and the cat and I don't intend on going out unless I really have to (I have UHT milk and a frozen loaf of bread, so I should be alright on that front).

    This place is great for a good natter and a rant as none of us know each other or our friends so it's great to be able to moan a bit without hurting someones feelings.:T

  • I love those Maia designs... I particularly love the Japanese Geisha ones: http://www.sewandso.co.uk/cgi-bin/find/db.cgi?db=zoom&do=search_results&Prod_Code=69313&ww=1 is my favourite, but they are all delightful.

    I have to say though, I really like the one you've chosen Bella, it's positive and happy, if you know what I mean :)

    I'm planning the same sort of day as Kez (until 3.30 anyway) - !!!!!!'s at work til half 3, he needs picking up, and then to Sainsburys, but that's it. Think we'll even have a takeaway for dinner. I love Chinese... :)

    Hi ladies.

    ((hugs)) for those of you who need them......even if you don't need one, have one anyway! :D

    Not done much stitching in the last couple of days, might try to get some done this evening.

    Stay warm and take care!

    love the nickname for your oh .i have the old whingey b*stard here lol but it's fine i just ignore him . We call him mr grumpy .

    Love the chart you like bella but sadly i don't have it either.

    Finished dolly mary's knitting until the ribbon and buttons arrive so did some stitching on the calendar bears again this morning. Six bears done and six to go now. Don't think it'll be finished by christmas though .

    Hope everyone's well and warm.
