Knit Your Square to Give Your Share - PART 4

Hi everyone again; here is the update:

Please let me know if there are any mistakes!

Right, now I'm off to sort out sweets for trick or treat tonight; we usually get three different groups calling round! I don't know what sort of tricks French children would play if they didn't get treats! They usually look so cute, though, that I don't mind them calling, and they are so polite when choosing sweets and lollies - I have to insist they take more than one each!

Hello one and all and some spooky love tucked in. Lots of lovely newsy posts here at the moment.

Ginnyso glad you could be there for your dear Grandson. Bless his heart.you will both become so special to him.

Jeanenjoy those sweets! You always sound so busy!

Mrs Moneypenny great news on the fund boost.I still think of that big commerative project you did for the school.

annakat I am so pleased you are trying the hedgehog mitts. Sweet Willliam loves his hedgehog called Hodge the best of all his toys. They are coming home for Christmas and he is going to be freezing so I thought I would try a pair ... But we all know what Chalky is like at following patterns!!!!!!

Kathyi am so ,so sorry to read of your Mum. I know how sad you must be feeling. I so hope that op helps. Poor Jane. And if all things your Mum would be mortified if she realised she was adding to a very sad situation .
Glad things are progressing with the house but even more so with the sewing machine .

Kathyis quite right ... We are on the first part of our journey to see our son,dear daughter in law and the very edible William. We have come to a friends in. Manchester as we fly on Sunday. He will,kindly drop us at the airport and look after the car. I am seriously keeping a VERY firm lid on my excitement just now. The other day on Skype William said in a loud voice" I love you!" Tear time xx

Hope all are having a happy Halloween with no nasty surprises. Wool is with me !!!!!!!

We had a lovely day yesterday with friends in Doveridge, Derbyshire, we met them on holiday in Spain 7 years ago and we meet up and visit each other a few times a year also holiday together every Feb/March for 2 weeks.. in Spain of course. We get on so well, all in all a very comfortable friendship IYSWIM

Then last night a Halloween party at DS2,DIL and DGS house they really had gone to town on the decorations and fancy dress and the food was halloween inspired but it tasted yummmmy... never eaten eyeballs before...quite surprised they were full of chocolate and popping candy;).... did you know Haribo's go soggy in jelly, taste ok'ish though...
So many trick or treaters, DS took DGS out to do his bit of trick or treating he came back with as much as we had given out... he loved every minute of it

ginny - I'm so pleased the map was ok it really did arrive quickly I'm amazed. awww poor little chap it sounds like a good sleep at nanny and grandads was what was needed:)
jean - I hope the lurgy has gone now and you are feeling better,
chalky - have a wonderful time with your lovely family and give little scrumptious a BIG HUG from me xx
kathy - I am so sorry to hear your Mum is having problems, I hope all is well for her when she has the laser treatment, poor Jane it must be difficult for her

Off to carry on with a little crochet cotton bag for DGD I started on the up to Derbyshire yesterday so hope to finish it tonight.

Love to all Ax

Hello everyone and lots of love tucked in. Well we are near Manchester ready for a very early start in the morning. My tummy is doing somersaults. I always get nervous/excited before flying. I am trying to ignore it right now but I am always relieved to actually get on the plane and settle. Hook and plastic needles are with me. My bag is small. DOH's bigger and the one with things for the family huge and heavy. ,..... All that space to bring things home from the souks. Not the gold one though. As I get older the less I want jewellery . More things to worry about. Now wool... That's a different story.

Well I know you are all going to be busy whilst I am away. Christmas preparations,Fayres etc etc but please all take care and enjoy it as you go.

Thank you for all the good wishes. We seem to be flitting about a lot at the moment. A family spread does not help!

I will of course give the edible William kisses from you all. Oh what a hardship!!!

If you are lurking and finding this emotive time of year difficult I send the gentlest hug x

Chalky, I am so excited for you, have a wonderful time. Thank you for offering to give William squeezy hugs and kisses from me and all our dear friends. Its a hard job but has to be done.

My Dgs is fast asleep on the couch after waking Mummy and Daddy up rather early. Dd got him some magnetic letters both for home and here and wanted a magnetic easel to put them on but I found a little magnetic noticeboard in Hobbycraft yesterday for £5 and it works perfectly and he can sit with it on his lap.

Weather here is lousy, wet and windy so no playing out today

Hope alls well with everyone, sending much love and hugs. Snowpeeps nearly done for Mrs Mp - will let you know when the are going in the post xx

mrs-moneypenny

have a lovely time chalky

thank you ginny

stay safe everyone the wind is really picking up
