I have gone off you Cassandra-telling us about the good weather you have! It is very cold here, but the snow from yesterday is now confined to the high mountains; and the roads are wet, with no snow visible down at my 950ft. Really good to hear from you, and I hope all well. I love the pun-Dallas and Knot's Landing sprang to my mind-well knitting is a form of tying knots. How good to have all together in a happy atmosphere, it really makes a difference, and especially if you have all the experienced helping the beginners. I can do plain knitting but never mastered purl, so I was confined to dishcloths. I did a lot of embroidery and will go back to that once I am confined to the house/bed whatever. I am thinking of entering a piece in the local show-a Florentine stitch foot stool. My mother did bead work too-way beyond me!
My Aus. friend gave me a book about Tasmania and in it is a picture of the bridge in Oatlands-very impressive. It was a sort of grand tour.
Yes, snow on the ground when I was on my way home, but the council round here are very good at keeping the roads open. As an agricultural area they know that an accident in farming can happen any time and they do give the rescuers every opportunity to get to the problems, safely. The road in front of my house has been gritted night and morning, as has the hill into Llanfyllin, which has sheer drops down one side and only at bit of pig wire as a safety net-aiming to keep sheep at home, and not motorists out!
What a blow to have your product treated badly MR., get on to them! Strangely enough I find snow driving easier than ice. I suppose it is because you can see the snow. Most ice is road coloured?
My intentions of going home to cut wood didn't materialise and I ended up at a friend's for tea and the home in the dark so today I will be sawing and chopping wood to make up for what I didn't achieve yesterday, though that never happens in reality. The plus is I didn't get as much wood as I wanted in the week so I will be getting into the big wood store and start cutting some of the it will come in for something one day-well that day/weekend is here! |
