    Very pretty and pastel nmm, a perfect summer bouquet. I bet she’ll love it. Spent yesterday searching unsuccessfully for an outfit for the wedding and cleaning and sorting at FIL. MIL in hospital again with a UTI infection.
    Thanks for good wishes.  100% pass rate on qualification board and final day of course bit weird over Zoom but many happy and grateful emails. Little bit of stitching on PL Dublin.

    I finished the Trike card, i adapted a motorbike design to create it, so its more a likeness. I don't think i did too badly, oh well its the thought that counts :D

    Hello from the highlands 🤣
    Day 4 of JoGLE and we are en route to Brora. I’m just waiting for my sister who is about 20 minutes behind me. Remind me please why we are doing this. It’s really really hard going. Sisters feet are already shot to pieces with blisters. Mine not too bad. Self catered hut tonight then camping tomorrow in Dornoch. Photos to follow.

    Hi Nmm, love the trike. Busy weekend with either GC or in-laws, both ends of the age spectrum. I cleaned, a lot yesterday. Also following the progress on FB Coxy. Those feet sound so painful. Hope a few days break allows them to heal. I can’t imagine how hard it is. Keep going. Was that chap going the opposite way (going LeJog), hoping to complete soon?

    Welcome Emma. Nmm the Junction is looking great. ‘I Do’ sampler now mounted and framed. Used existing mounting card and purchased a frame from the R@nge. Fairly happy with it, now wrapped and just need to remember to take it to the wedding next week.
    Stitching PL Dublin now.
