    That's hysterical! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: I was once coopted onto a committee of a dog club I had only just joined because I was the only non-committee member to turn up to the AGM! But at least I was a member at the time!!

    I think my Mum had discovered there was no one down/prepared to do the Secretary role (and if you don't have a Quorum the WI branch has to close) so I THINK she signed me up as a member and then got me good and proper!

    Absolutely - folk will appreciate it I think even if it is just the basics. We have just moved to Wales so are learning Welsh - unique language learning situation that every piece of paper that comes through the door, every sign etc is bi-lingual - and of course we get welsh TV...

    Roughly translated I think I said I'm learning Welsh. It's good. :D

    Oooh very nice! We can always tell when we hit Wales as the road suddenly has ARAF on it not just SLOW :D, at the moment the Ddraig Blewog (Furry Dragon) is asleep on the sofa (still! he is breathing though :rotfl:) so not sure if having the computer blaring out Welsh phrases for me to parrot back is a good idea :wink:

    I think you were there already :D. Will continue to lurk, but may venture out more often now.

    And I will try and post more often on your thread (and others I lurk on :p)

  • Happy new diary Dragon :)
    Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?
    Still lurking around with a hope of some salvation:cool:

    So far so good :D, Tarot cards being pulled, got my flu jab on Tuesday (so NSDs happening as I feel too crummy to go out _pale_) the sofa is staying clear (well apart from a parcel that I took in for across the road, my handbag and the Ddraig Blewog!), the coffee table is as clear as it ever gets :p.

    As well as this I am up to date on my NaNoWriMo :T and I am a third of the way through the pot holder :T:T - I was thinking about going out for Sunday lunch as Dr Dragon has an all day rehearsal BUT if I don't it is another NSD and would make 5 in a row if I don't spend before then :think:, hmm thinking about it that way a bowl of home made soup is looking very tempting!

    It is rather grey and over cast here at the moment - so I think I will cheer myself up by cutting my cards up and then doing an hours crochet before the docs re-opens after lunch (need to get my thyroid blood test results). CC payments - hmm nothing going to happen with that until next Friday but then I will be back on track AND if I am really good I could make a double payment this month - which would go a long way to negating the stress spending of the last two months.

    Okay off to get the scissors, then email Yarnscape and then a relaxing afternoon ;)
