    I'm making clothes most of which is more suited to holidays than everyday although the trousers I've made I've yet to decide whether or not they are holiday or everyday or even if I'll wear them!  The hems don't look too brilliant so it may end up I don't where them but hopefully they'll look better once they've been washed.

    If they're OK they'd be OK for both everyday wear or holiday (spring/summer only) as they're not very thick.

    No idea what the 9 bodies on a Mexican Morgue is!  Assume it's a film?  If not no idea!!!

    Not sure where time has gone. It was Dh birthday at weekend so we celebrated by going into the big city nearby. The Christmas markets opened at weekend so we had a mooch around some of it. It was nice to see some of square in front of the town hall open after several years. They’re renovating the town hall and it’s way over schedule and budget. We didn’t do all the markets as they sprawl everywhere. We jumped on a tram and had a drink at a nearby place with a new complex by a big canal. Then back into the city for a Chinese……so many things were spicy so I ended up with sweet and sour. Not the best SW choice but it was rather delicious and I shared some of it with Dh and ds. The celebrations seemed to carry on for a few days….even though it wasn’t my birthday I fully embraced the excuse. I weighed on Monday morning and had put 2 lb on. I weighed again this morning and I’m down to 1/2 lb gain. I’ve made a big pan of soup - chicken, veg and lentils and it’s rather delicious so am sticking with it……I’m using hm freezer meals to free up some freezer space before Christmas. I should have been going to aqua tomorrow but have just cancelled as I’ve got a dentist appointment I’d forgotten about. 
    I love the idea of making clothes and used to make a lot for the children when they were small. I even bought a new table for my sewing machine but haven’t got around to doing any actual sewing.
    Hope your Dh is much better after visiting the ciro  Coxy.
    How disappointing having to change the holiday you’ve had booked ages Denise.
