I echo every word of this - the kindness shown here with willingness to share ideas and resources was invaluable to me - nothing offered locally came anywhere near! -
Oh well - I could always have another G & T so that you are not alone ❤️
-
Phew! Glad to hear it - 2 days eh - brilliant news - don't be overdoing things today - I prescribe some crochet and reading x I have just taken sweet little granddog up to the field for a run - honestly I swear she must be part greyhound - she runs like the wind! I would have to walk about 25 miles to give her that much exercise... Right - I must tackle the ironing - but I will have one eye on the England game!
-
Oh no, how are feeling today young Froglet?
-
Here's to Panders - our very lovely forum friend - cheers x
-
I have a gin and tonic poured - I can hear Panders saying "any excuse"
-
Good - it might just be me and thee but think it would be a good thing to do - let's hope others come along to join us x
-
Good morning - 'tis Friday I wondered if it would be a nice idea for us all to 'raise a glass' to Panders at the same time this evening - or a cup if you don't drink - perhaps 7pm - what do you think? I have 'Sprocker granddog' arriving soon - she will be with us for two weeks - the pleasure is all mine, she is a dear little thing ❤️ Hope that the weekend is kind to all x
-
Oh that's just brilliant! ❤️
-
Oh my - let's hope not!🤦♀️🤣
-
I have several photos of her dressed as a policewoman aged 3 - so guess it was written in the stars! Thanks for your kind thoughts and congratulations x
-
I thought long and hard about posting some happy news - my decision was reached in the sure and certain knowledge that Panders would not mind at all... So here goes: My beautiful eldest granddaughter graduates today with a First class degree! We are so proud of her, especially as she was in the cohort who were unable to take A levels (Covid restrictions) and in her first uni year she never got onto campus - all studying was virtual. She has secured a job with the Police - 10 weeks on the beat (arrgh) and then into CID - this has been a long held ambition. As I said - we are all very proud of her!
-
And a hug for you too dear Mousie x
-
That's very kind of you, thank you x
-
Not all - it hadn't gone unnoticed (by me) that she hadn't posted for the last two weeks - but I never want my lovely forum friends to think that I am 'keeping tabs on them' I am so utterly shocked and so very, very sad for her and for her lovely family...
-
Dear Friday friends This is not my place really but please look out for a thread started by Pander's son -I know that you will all want to comment...
-
Oh my goodness, I am so, so sorry, I considered her such a good forum friend. Thank you so very much for letting us know Sending much love to you all xxx
-
Phew! Thought it was just me! I do a fair bit of shouting too - but mainly at Andrew Castle - his commentary drives me nuts ☹️
-
Whoop! Whoop! What an amazing final! (I'm not the only tennis fan am I?)
-
One of my friends has a granddaughter who is not only coeliac but type 1 diabetic too - I am in complete awe of the family and the little girl - such a lot to cope with... Did you enjoy your evening out young Froglet and did you manage to stay awake?!
-
Oh my life - that sounds complicated! 🤦♀️ Just give me a knit the back, knit the front, knit two sleeves pattern and I would know what I was doing 🤣 I can't believe that she was sold this as an easy beginners pattern - 'tis not!
-
I didn't realise that it would take so little either ☹️
-
I'm sure you are right - I can't visualise it at all - isn't it funny how differently brains work!
-
Interesting discussion - I wouldn't have known how to make an icord either! One of Knit and Natter ladies has decided to make a jumper for her youngest granddaughter - she went to a wool shop asked for advice (she has not knitted anything more than squares before) they sold her wool and a pattern that was to be knitted in one piece and assured her it would be really easy 😲 it starts with knitting a sleeve - all good - but then she was a bit stuck - two of us looked at the pattern and I cast on the extra stitches that she needed for the next bit... It kept me awake that night - a case of - 'well I know two of us looked at it and agreed the next step, but I'm not sure about this, that sleeve (which was already looking too long) is just going to grow and grow' - quick text 'don't do anymore until we have looked at that again'! Think we are now on the right track - took it to where it needs to be and the 'sleeve' has been moved to a spare needle - flippin' heck - this was sold as being an 'easy pattern' - if it was me I would have taken it apart and chosen an easier pattern... I don't think will be the last time we have to try and sort it out!
-
Think I know where you are going with this 😉 but no I don't, have been meaning to sort that out for ages...
