NEWS FLASH -NEWS FLASH- NEWS FLASH

emptied the sweatshop over last weekend and most of this week have assembled all the stuff that was strewn around the house...........NOW all I need to do is sort if and stow it.........then I can get to the machines and get stuck in............- easy eh? I am somewhat overwhelmed by the amount of stash for sewing I actually have, so will need to get going soon as possible and
use it up.

Love and hugs to you all

Jean i just rang the hospital was told to ask for labour ward. and spoke to a nurse on that. theyve given me a name to ask for when i go in with stuff or to leave things for the attention of her so they dont go awol.

glad to gear you have your sweat shop back

i still have a bag of [STRIKE]roadkill [/STRIKE]flatpack hedgehogs if you need them

mioliere

Jean, thank so much for posting that link; great prices and they deliver outside the UK, too! Please thank Maytaurus, too. I shall make up an order later on. Enjoy your sweatshop!

Shaz - have a great time in Scotland! Please wish your mum good luck, too.

Just guess where I am supposed to be right now - sorting out the sweatshop..................taken time out to have a coffee - boy this is going to take ages to re-arrange - perhaps even a whole weekend or worse still a whole week. I have loads of storage boxes just awaiting me but thought I would just pop in and say hello to you all first.......
perhaps if you all SHOUTED AT ME I would get a wiggle on and make it happen. Love and cuddles to you all anyway, will pop back in a bit later and let you know how I have got on.

Pippa.S

Thank you all for your good wishes for OH it's much apreciated x

We went to visit some friends up in Derbyshire yesterday they live in a lovely little village called Doveridge. I don't think we stopped talking all day...and I can talk ask chalky :rotfl:rattle chops my nan used to call me...,anyway back to our friends we all met 6 years ago in Spain at a lovely hotel in Benidorm and meet up every year...got to go at the right time though or it's :eek: wouldn't go in the high season but Feb/March it's just right.
He has the most gorgeous granny throwover all in squares on the bed that is over 70 years old, he said his moms friend made it for her when he was a lad, he's almost 80 now although you wouldn't think it he has so much energy and very knowledgable

shaz - have a great time in Scotland enjoy every minute
mrs-m - glad you managed to get a named person to deliver to, it makes things so much easier
jean - sounds like you will soon be back in business in the sweat shop
f1 - as jean said slowly does it she knows what she's talking about...listen to your body, but it's good to hear you are feeling a little better

I've been working on IS Hats and some squares lately to use up some bits and pieces of yarn

got to go I am getting the LOOK !!!
love to all Ax

Roamin - no time for coffee 'GET BACK TO SORTING'

Pippa thats wonderful news - long may it continue. xx

Mrs MP I bet the hospital will love what you are taking them.

Shaz hope you had a good time in Scotland and that your Mums op goes well.

Took Oh for his emergency MRI yesterday so just waiting for a phone call, which means its serious, or a letter to call us for results. Yesterday was awful, as he was very tense ( for tense read ratty bu**er) and I had my patience stretched to snapping :mad: but we did it...again...

I have had DGS to stay for 3 days as his Mummy and Daddy needed a break and actually it was good timing as it kept Oh busy even tho he had to keep going for a nap. DD told me last night she nearly cancelled on the last minute as OH took ill at her house last Friday and she felt as if she was leaving me in a mess. DGS still went to his minders Monday and Tuesday as she still gets paid if he doesnt go so it wasnt too bad. Life still has to go on around his illness's and we cant just sit here so while we can we will do what we do.

thank you all for your support and kind thoughts it keeps me going xxxx
