    Hi everyone. I'm just calling in to say that, sadly, I cannot have any extra lines to my sig! I think I shall just take everything out and put a link to our running totals in instead. I need to fiddle around with it to see if it works. I like having the running totals there because, when I post on other threads, it's extra advertising for our cause. Anyway, some time today I shall see if I can do that.

    Hope everyone is well and, Pippa, hope your DH and your Mum are both getting better.

    Mrs Moneypenny - thanks again for the offer of the row counter. I've posted on the Daily to explain that I've found mine now!

    Sounds like you will be having a nipple-knitting session soon!

    I'm not sure what 80 gms will knit; perhaps a pair of bootees or mittens? Sorry, I'm not much help - hopefully someone else will be along with some ideas!

    Hi everyone - I've just noticed that the link in my sig has been removed! I shall have to appeal to the powers that be to ask for their approval. I WILL find a way. Meanwhile, I have saved it into my favourites toolbar and will see if I can copy and paste it at the end of each post!


    I don't know why my font has shrunk so apologies to those who now have to get their glasses on to read this post!

    I will update later; I haven't caught up with the thread today because I've been working but will call back in and update later.


    See you later


    KathyXX

    I've just tried the link and it didn't work - I'll pm MSE Andrea and ask her if MSE will approve it.
