    hello all (creeps in after being a bother with the update!)

    mrs m - am sending you many warm thoughts at your sad loss - can see why you are keeping busy - big hugs as always xxx

    Have been finishing stitching together a blanket made up of "magic squares" or mitred squares whichever you know them as and realised was one short - so just sitting down to do that this afternoon - have managed 3/4 hour flattening those cloth things:D legs were hurting so did not manage any more but left the board up in case the mood took me later - aim to do about 1 hour every day this week

    I have cards to make for upcoming birthdays - managed to sort out a few of my craft drawers over the weekend - other half to do soon - have not discarded any of it mind was just putting it back in the right place

    Lots to achieve so away i go - hugs to all on this lovely sunny day xx

    Mrs Moneypenny - I'm so sorry to hear about your grandmother. Hugs to you and your family.

    F1 - you certainly are not being a bother; any mistakes will be mine!
    I'm currently having problems accessing the spreadsheet but I haven't had time to sort it out yet. I will do it as soon as I can. I'm doing some online work (which is always to a tight deadline!), and I[m having to help DH demolish an old barn, so my time is being well used up!

    Hope everyone is having good weather. It's lovely here again.

    Afternoon all

    mrs-moneypenny - so sorry to hear your sad news about your grandmother, I am sending gentle (((hugs))) for you and your family x

    not too much news here... just been really busy with one thing and another... have started getting things ready to go down to the Caravan on 4th April when the season starts.

    Got the gas board coming tomorrow to check boiler and radiators on the gas plan we have just signed up to.

    Have to take Mom to the QE Neurology unit on Thursday, because last time she fell she kept seeing double for a few days, it all seems to have settled down now though...

    Next job is do something with the lounger pads from last year, we bought them from Morrisons and they were stuffed with foam crumb, it all sinks to the bottom so I decided to re-stuff them with a couple of cushion pads and a roll of foam from Dunelm Mill, what a pain getting all the bits out it was everywhere, then I washed the covers to freshen them up so now its all systems go...

    I have finally started the edging on a ripple I made so long ago I can't remember how long now!!!:o
    Also made a start on some wool a friend gave me a couple of months ago, so I'm doing hats for sailors to use it up as it is 100% wool it should keep them warm out on the high seas

    Well I better go get started Luv to all
    TTFN

    hi all!

    mrs moneypenny - so sorry to hear your bad news, i will keep you and you family in my thoughts.

    not much happening here, but we still seem very busy all the time! i dont stop for a minute - dont think i had time for either a cup of tea or coffee after 8 this morning! shocking, no wonder i have a headache!

    still crocheting the lovely little jumpers for the aids orphans, and i have found a new wool supplier (he was the only one who would send me buttons for the jumpers at a price that i didn't think was extortionate - he is only on the internet and has limited stock, but the sites name is knit n !!!!!, i think, and max is very kind and patient - well worth a look.

    isom, hope that you are well. looked at the link you provided a while ago and bought a couple of those little cutters that you can take on the plane - that will definitely be an improvement for me - so thank you!

    may - how are you, long time no see.

    roaming - hope that the polytunnel is fine - our neighbour has just "made" one for his tomatoes - he insists that he will have tomatoes in june - if they are there, he had better protect them as i am dreaming of lovely red tomatoes on toast at the moment!

    socky - hope that you are well!

    f1 - sounds like you have been busy too - rearranging is always a pain, you find lovely stuff that you want to use right away - it always slows me down!

    everyone else, hope you are well

    dpixie (its time for a quick cuppa and then bed!)
