Hello to one and all and lots of love too! xx
Well Mrs Twins What wonderful news -- you must be absolutely thrilled and I think giving the money to Charity to be be a wonderful gesture. I hope it has gone to a good home! Wonderful news about the voucher too!

Well we had a long visit to a local market this morning which all the girls enjoyed but the weather is being so mean!!!!! Makes entertaining a much harder task even though they are being very good about it. I think they have given up on hoping for the sun to make an appearance and gone for a Siesta!! I could do with 1 too!!

I am making a Paella for tea so I hope that turns out well!

Well all the excitement of the wedding and birthday are over and I am sitting quietly hooking some snakes. Thanks again for such kind wishes

It must be time for the Loving Hands Challenges to be announced mustn't it! I am looking forward to seeing them!

Well I am going to try for 40 winks!
Love to all

Hello lovely ladies

well firstly a very guilty me sends belated birthday wishes to Chalky - Im so sorry its late - I hope you had a lovely day xxxxx

secondly - Jean I really hope you feel better soon - fancy a nurse? I could do with escaping....... you have really been through the mill - its not the same without our Jean xxxxx

Thirdly - well done MrsTwins on your win - absolutely wonderful - I would join in but cant crochet! (secretly wishing I could but it feels so alien to me) anyway well done you and all the lovely ladies that took part xxxx

Fourthly - Ive got a real mood on - does anyone want a family?!:rotfl:long story and wont bore you - I feel better for saying that bit! tee hee

Finally - I hope you have all had / having a lovely weekend - wasnt the wedding just lovely - elder sister went up to London on her own and has some lovely pics which Ive seen on internet - DS said "oh look she got the Queen to look at her" as she has one where the Queen is looking right at her - I thought DS would moan that it was on the TV all day but he loved every minute of it as well and we only really switched off at 4.00 it had been on since 7.50am (DOH had to work no bank holiday for him! so he missed it all) - the bit where he drove the car I thought was just magical - how handsome William and Harry were and Catherine was stunning

I think we only have one more sleep and its Loving Hands Challenge day (or has Lou been sneaky and done it early.....) - Im off to get a blanket finished this weekend (third one done only one more to do and time is running out! only 3-4 more weeks before the babies start appearing) I really want to have a go at Shelleys request for small things - I think I have some 4ply white - its not my favourite at all but do like to help - as for knitting to send off - its in the bags to go but thats as far as its got im ashamed to say

Oh no the boys are back - no more peace and quite - love and hugs to all xxxx

Ok so I know it's not particularly impressive but I just wanted to share my first attempts at crochet...



I love looking at the Attic24 blog, wish I was as creative as Lucy!! I saw her little crochet hearts a few weeks ago, but only got around to getting crochet hooks and some more yarn today. I have been sitting here all afternoon just messing around and get the hang of it, having never crocheted before, but am quite proud of my first attempt!

Yoo Hoo only me :wave:

Got a few minutes while I drink my tea, OH is over the road blowing up tyres for the oldies....

weather is looking good so far,need to get out and put some plants in the border, check the pots I planted up last week and tie up the clematis it seems to have shot up in the last few days, so thats my day sorted

MrsTwins - oooo how exciting first prize well done everyone who contributed :T:T:T
chalky - O how nice is that, not easy over there to get any woolly stuff must have taken DH ages to find such a special present for your birthday;) Shame the weather is not so good for DD and her friends, it was'nt good when we were in Spain in March, never known it so bad
4nnabelle - thats lovely well done you :T I agree Lucy is so creative and her colours are gorgeous
f1widow -same here I just loved every minute of the wedding, and I was surprised that OH did too, loved the sports car exit just right I wonder if Prince Harry had a hand in putting the balloons on, O and the:kisses2: on the balcony, it was a lovely day
Jean - I hope you're feeling a little better today
Shelley - I have done a couple of sets of hats and bootees will send them off next week

Must go Washing machine has done its stuff and I need to get the sheets out on the line

Tonight I plan to have a bash at a pattern I found for that snuggly Bubbly wool if I can get to grips with it that is have'nt managed it yet
