    Please make the numbers large and in colour! ;)

    You almost missed getting a lovely 2nd pair of summery sandals:

    I just hope that Hubert hasn't got to them first.
  • Thanks for the lovely sandals. Promise I will type them in colour and large like this : NSD NUMBER 16 today. . If I remain good tomorrow it would be my third 3 in a row, fingers crossed. I promise to be good to earn my third pair of sandals. :p

    Knit Witch! :wave:
    I was getting worried about you.I thought that maybe you were poorly again and Cheffie has spent the few hours making you a traditional Swedish poultice full of 'erbs and 'stuff' to wear round your neck....

    No connection.What a bother! :mad:

    Good to see you back.

    Wowser!Zipping way ahead of us all;I wouldn't expect anything less. :money: :j :beer:

    Ascot ended in catastrophe and Hubert has now been issued with a restraining order against HRH The Queen!!! :eek:

    After a hurried but dignified retreat from Ascot,The 'Our Lovely Donkey' brigade gatecrashed and headlined Glastonbury on Saturday night though. :rotfl::rotfl: ;)

    So there is some justice in the world....

    PS Igor urgently needs a new pair of knitted unmentionables.Some things never change. :wall:

    Blimey! It sounds like I was lucky to miss the trip :rotfl:, *sigh* Igor I will get right on that (any idea what colour he wants this time?)

    Oooh should have said I obviously hit my target - stormed through my customary target of 20 and I am currently working on 25 :eek:
    Must use my stash up!
  • Hi Marmite and everybody. I had a lovely holiday, thanks. I did a few nights camping and had a day trip to London.

    NSD 8 for me today :)
