    Hello everyone

    Went over to see Mum this morning, OH is going stir crazy and wanted to go out so off we went she was really pleased to see us, didnt stay too long but it was a change of scenery for him, he fell asleep when we got back

    f1 - the snowman is really good I fancy doing one myself, can you tell me what size he is and what size loom you used? the smallest one I have is 5.1/2" and I have a feeling it may be too big. I watched TENKO this afternoon and managed to do 1 loom hat and started another I am surprised how quick they are
    kathy - well done with all your online work but how on earth do you manage to fit it all in?
    Shelley - parcel on its way to you I posted it this morning
    psso - when I was VERY young (about 9) I stayed with my favourite aunt and uncle who was a scot he made porridge for us all each morning but urgggh it was awful he put SALT on it, I never ate it for years after that...love it now though... if its got sultanas on:rotfl:

    Well the oven is beeping at me so I better go and dish up

    Helloooooo - can someone send me a wee bit of sunshine pleeeeease, it`s been chucking it down here today, downright miserable:( I don`t want too much as can`t stand the heat, but warm would be very nice.

    F1 -Love the loomy snowman, might have to go for a looksee at the shop - you know the one, the woolshop. DD might even manage that. I know, I`ll tell her your little lad can do it so a big girl like her should have no bother !!:rotfl:Blimey, she doesn`t have a crafty bone in her body so she`d probably chuck it across the living room at me.

    Pippa - I didn`t want to say yesterday as people might think I was strange, OK so nothing new there, but I put a sprinkle of salt on my porridge too ( it brings out the flavour)and pour the milk down the side of the bowl so that I have a floating island of porridge :) Big kid that I am.

    Had a sort out in the corner so now have a bagful of small balls of wool ready for more smoothie hats. Also found some UFO`s :( which have been ignored for a while - was getting bored with them so they `disappeared` ;) into the Black Hole.

    Off to put the feet up and cast on again.

    Hi just popped in to say thank you so much for your kind comments on my snowlady - I must just point out that evn though its name is "roamin the snowlady" - the facial features in now way reflect our dear lovely Jean!

    pippa - yes use the 5.5 inch loom - he is approx 9 inches tall 3.5-4 inches wide xx

    The only thing is I realised after that the pattern said 2 strands chunky but I did 2 strands DK

    psso - yes DD could do it im sure - I wont tell you that tonight DS has been to craft club and made a scrap book page and a lovely felt sewn monkey - very proud of him - go on have a nice trip to the woolie shop :rotfl:xxx
