    Thanks for the link, Pol. That pattern is lovely. I made several pairs last year for Christmas presents and they all went down really well, but the pattern I printed off is looking a bit tatty now so, thanks to you, I can print it off again. Shez - I'm sure your mum will really appreciate them. I added little flowers to the ones I made to pretty them up.

    Well, we've been to the local pork farm, been introduced to Sausage the pig (!), several very tempting little kittens looking for homes, a goat and lots of chickens. We had a lovely chat, met some friends there, and came back loaded up with lots of pork goodies which I've just about managed to squeeze into the freezer, so that's us sorted out for a while.

    Anyway, back to putting things back in my kitchen cupboards at last.

    Hope you are all having a good Sunday.

    Thanks everyone! x
  • miol, did you manage to resist the kittens?!! Im hopeless and would invaraibly have come home with one! I almost came home with a snake on Friday - thankfully I didnt as discovered mum is terrified of them and her comment was "snake in, and Im out"!!
    Restful day here - mum did lovely chicken with mushroom sauce with ice cream and brandy snaps for lunch and then I slept it off for a few hours! Dont worry i have my passport...I had to get a new one as did loose the other in last years chuck out and the fee certainly makes you more aware of it lol!
    Two days training and then a day to pack and off to the airport at about 2am weds!!
    Well done on those blankets mrs twins - they really are lovely!

    Afternoon everyone

    I’ve not been posting, but lurking, as time is in short supply here at the mo. Babysitting, helping out neighbour and general busyness is eating away at my time, but I have to catch up with you all as best I can.

    Chalky, hope you had a lovely time over the weekend.
    May, that little bib is absolutely gorgeous, I love it.
    Shez, love to you and your family.
    PTB, how’s the pink project going? Hugs for you too.
    ISOM, have a great time in Italy.
    Toots, nice to see you.
    Kathy, glad to see you have your internet back, and your kitchen lol.

    There is so much going on, where does the time go to? I'm making the debbie bliss teddy for DGD, but it's taking ages because my wrists and hands are bad just now and I hate to sit and not knit/crochet. Still, I'm going to Stratford at the weekend to see my DB and SIL, so looking forward to that.
    Anyway, gentle thoughts for all those mia or feeling low or poorly and hugs to those that need them.

    love to everyone

    good morning everyone, hope everyone is well. have been up since six couldnt sleep, so been having another go with the crochet, after throwing it across the room last night. still not getting anywhere fast, but have made a bit of progress, suppose it will take lots of practise, i dont remember learning to knit so hard.
    ISOM enjoy your trip to italy
    chalky, glad you had a nice time
