    Morning all,

    I'm up early as I ended up cancelling my annual leave today because when my colleagues found out why I couldn't make the Xmas do yesterday, they decided to chip in for my ticket & will then get it back on expenses later. I felt so embarassed yet flattered that they cared so much too, as much as I whinge about working here some days I really do love some of the people here!

    That's so lovely. Hope you have a great time.

    sorry for late check in...Not feeling great....will be okay. Just tired from trying to go nocturnal to escape the conspiracy (Dr. C says this is a delusion...Hmm...move away from the Land Rover Dr. C...at least the drivers seat)

    But the good news is I picked up a new purse in the charity shop (tula :D) for £3.50 when I went to the bank for cash and they were lovely and so understanding and on tuesday I see the same lady (when I get paid) and like I just take in my ISA cash card...:j...

    Hope everyone is well...praying for some nice cards (of the money/bus pass variety) in the post today :)

    pea & mint soup for lunch, porridge for breakfast & last of the satsumas (went crazy on a box of ferraro last night :o:o:o)

    :rotfl:Too easily done - was me two weeks ago :rotfl:They're my favourite!

    struggling to find a pattern for this wool I bought =(

    if anyone can help... I am after a pattern for a triangular shawl/cowl/shrug with a simple lace pattern. the wool is called big softy (not the sirdir (sp) brand but a cheaper version) and knits as standard chunky and mohair.

    Happycrafter - Are you on Ravelry??? If not, join up, search for the wool and see what everyone else has knitted with it. Or search for a pattern and see if you can substitute the wool... Otherwise you can 'stash' the wool and say you'd like to sell or trade it with someone who needs it.



    Me:
    • Declined offer of the pub... :o
    • Brekkie at home
    • Soup for lunch - no hot roast pork sarnie for me ;)
    • Turned the fridge freezer back on :mad: so going to do a shop tonight so we can get some home cooked food cooking this weekend...Or might be using my slow cooker for making mulled wine :p
    • Free cuppa in work x 2
    Nice to catch up with the thread this lunchtime. What a stressy old day at work. Roll on 5pm!!

    Littlekel - hope everything goes ok for your DD x

    Stitchy - have fun tonight! Yay to free night out!

    ((Candy)) Boo to what the scales say! Chuck em out at your first opportunity!

    yep signed up to Ravelry the other day, plus a couple of other sites was struggling to find information about the wool. just got back in to knitting and my knowledge about wool etc is not very good. think I have found a pattern on ravelry fingers crossed it will work out ok!
