I took one look at it and gave up. Maybe I’ll try again later

Good morning Ted and Poppy! You had me at rain forecast, but ours isn’t due till 5pm so hopefully my washing will be dry before then. Have a good day 😊

Thank you Gill 😊

You’re right, and often I remind myself of this when I’m ordering other things. But when it’s only really available on line I often bulk buy.

Anyway, I couldn’t find the cream in my stash and was almost resigned to buying more when I spotted it with yarn I’d set aside for another project. Phew!

The cream is easy to source and I think I have a spare ball in my stash. But the other colours would involve online shopping and deciding between paying postage or splurging on extending my stash. I bought yarn last month and can’t really afford another splurge 😬

Ah I see. My son and his gf have lots of cow themed items in their house which is why I wondered about changing the animal

Running out of yarn is a nightmare. I’m definitely going to run out of the cream colour, not sure about the others yet

Thank you. I did wonder about changing them to cows 🐮

Thank you ☺️

So do I!

Crochet blanket with stripes of apricot heart, grey sheep and some strange green blobs.

Mosaic crochet blanket update. I’m really pleased with it so far, but annoyed I will need to buy extra yarn 🧶

Well done 👍 the worst bit is always getting the spray and duster out for the first mirror

They just seem to do really well around here, including in my garden where they have plenty of light. They are looking particularly good this year

😂

A little stone built church, just a single roomed chapel really, with a white door in a rustic porch and above a window with 8 panes of glass then above that a bell. Behind are trees and in front lots of yellow primroses and a rustic fence. Archie the brown and white springer spaniel is in the foreground, looking at the church.

A wonderful display of primroses in the garden in front of the little church down the road.

Archie the brown and white springer spaniel with a twig of bramble leaves on his head.

Same, only this time Archie is looking up at the camera.

Natural fascinators for dogs. Modelled by Archie. You saw it here first 😂

A single yellow primrose flower surrounded by oval primrose leaves and long strappy bluebell leaves. They are in turn surrounded by bright green moss.

A primrose nestling with bluebell leaves in the moss set the bottom of a tree. Spotted on our walk this morning

We’re not metered so it will just be getting the plumber out that’s expensive. But I still hate wasting water, such a precious commodity and we tend to take it for granted in this country

Yes, there’s a toad patrol in the Forest of Dean

I’m probably even worse as I never watch anything and rarely open a newspaper 🤷‍♀️

Hopefully we’ll survive as crochet friends 😢

Thank you!

He’s usually good in an emergency, not so easy to pin down for routine work 😂

Yes but also the plumber has said he’ll pop in later. Let’s hope he remembers 🤞

Think mine were tartan, in fact I think one of the family kilts has a kind of thin waistcoat attached to the top. It’s definitely not designed to be seen though

Love that description “growing at the same pace as an oak tree “

Never heard of her either!

D has turned the valve off and it’s stopped dripping. Just tiles so easy to mop up. Hopefully we can get hold of our local plumber in the next few days 🤞

Exactly.

Especially when there’s still a teen in the house who stays in the upstairs bathroom for hours

Found out by standing in the puddle in my stocking feet 😱
