Morning all - 'tis Friday! I have youngest granddaughter here - she didn't want to go supermarket shopping with her mummy - who can blame her - she is busy colouring at the moment! Mr S is just off to his mum's house to meet a man about fitting a stair lift for her, she will be 92 in a few days, her greatest wish is to be able to stay in her house we will do all we can to help her with this although it is not practical really... Weather - hmm, well least said about that the better - overcast with that horrible NE wind - 2nd June should not be like this at all... I have two 'granddogs' arriving on Tuesday - whoop! A bit of confusion at 'Knit and Natter' - as I said before we are making up lap blankets to be included in 'seasonal' hampers for the most senior village residents...when we agreed this I had said "we need to make 25 squares each week now to have enough ready for 12 blankets" - yesterday one of the lovely ladies put a huge pile of squares on the table - I said "wow, you have made loads" - yes she said but it's not enough is it - she thought that I meant 25 each! 🤦♀️ all sorted now and she can relax this coming week Think that's all my 'exciting news' 🙃 Have a lovely weekend all x

I am wearing a t-shirt, a shirt, a thick cardi, jeans, socks...but have put the heating on - I may have mentioned before 'I don't do cold'!
-
Rumour has it that it is 1st June today and the first day of meterological (oh how do you spell that?) summer - flippin' heck it feels like autumn here 🙃
-
Sounds like a good plan - you should not be working every day - you are meant to take a break x Very simple tea here - sausage and mash (might run to a few peas with that!) What is your next crochet project? We have had our two youngest grandchildren - they have just gone home - seems quiet now! Weather seems to have gone a bit pear shaped - very chilly NE wind and a few showers...
-
Oh my actual goodness - I still feel guilty about your poinsettia - you posted a photo of it and I said something awful like "I would chuck that if I were you" 🤦♀️ shows how much I know about such things! 😂 Agree about wasps nests - they are incredible - I would be happier though if the little blighters did not build them near my front door! I loved 'doing' autumn when I was working - lots of awe and wonder in that changing season...
-
Oh yes - i had quite forgotten - there does come a time when they are a bit 'too big for their boots' 😂 Can't believe you used the C word louby - you wait 'til Sue sees that 🤦♀️
-
I was thinking that yesterday - last term of the year was my favourite too! We have had an invitation to lunch at youngest son's house today - all very last minute - but all lovely! Beautiful morning here - hope the sun is shining for all today
-
Agreed - but I loved it - such quick thinking!
-
I have just been out for my first 'decent' walk since the 'horrible knee' business started - it was lovely - one of the things that I really enjoy about walking is that you get to chat with people along the way - my eldest son would be saying 'mum, can you just say hello' but keep moving.......er, well, no that won't ever happen! 😂 In other news - we are picking strawberries from the poly tunnel - whoop!

Hi Stephen 'can you remember whether it felt like the scales were appropriate for all learners'? It may surprise you to hear that my answer is yes when used as a tool for observation - but not necessarily to report to parents I must try and find the Twitter discussion... -
Good morning 'tis Friday! Another BH and half-term for those who get them - enjoy... How is everyone? Nothing exciting to report here - just happy with the better weather which helps with the 'gentle pottering' that I enjoy so much Hope that the weekend is kind to all x P.S. How brilliant was that woman that 'watered' the protesters at Chelsea yesterday! 😂

Hi Stephen Happily retired now - but yes, I used the Leuven Scales in my setting - we had some super training in Kent around this, I seem to think it was called 'A Boxful of Feelings' -
Eh? What? Are you telling me it's not 🤣
-
How brilliant - have a wonderful time!
-
Weather is just beautiful again here - line full of washing (I am so sad that's important to me 🙃), I have planted out 27 plants, geraniums, salvias, petunias and sunflowers, have chatted with neighbours (also important to me), house is 'acceptable', so I think my next step is to sit in the sun and read...
-
Oh that's not good...everything crossed here too xxx
-
Sending lots of loving support to both of you xxx

Good morning - 'tis Friday! How is everyone getting on? I am enjoying the change in the weather - how lovely to see the sun long may it last - not too much to ask for now that we are halfway through May... Looked after our two youngest grandchildren for a few hours after school - very 'interesting' conversation with granddaughter, after checking with my DIL it would seem that her class (Year 3) have had some sort of Sex Ed...good to know, thanks for warning me 🤦♀️🤣 Knitting group was such fun yesterday - we are now making 'lap blankets' for inclusion in the 'seasonal' hampers that our Parish Council clerk makes up for our very oldest village residents. Might pop out later - need to buy eleventy-billion cards for all of the June birthdays... No real plans for the weekend will just take it as it comes - have a good one y'all x

Nope - I am the crochet edger 🙃

They are really lovely Cait! I broke the news to my little group this morning re the lap blankets for our own 'seniors' - phew - they were all really enthusiastic - so that's great! The member that takes on all the 'sewing up' wasn't there today, so lets hope she is keen too - I'm sure she will be...
-
Shhhhhh I'm knitting 🤣🤣🤣
-
Oooh - I am proper excited! 🤣 Our, very lovely Parish Council Clerk makes up (oh crikey - hmmm) seasonal hampers for the village seniors - I asked her if she would like Knit and Natter group to make some lap blankets for the hampers - she thinks this is a great idea and commented that the 'old folk' will be especially pleased if they are made by 'local hands' - will share this news with my little group on Thursday I know they will be enthusiastic (well, they had better be, or I will have some serious blanket making to do 🤣)
-
Well done on the gardening zigzag! How is your knee? I had an absolutely horrible day yesterday - I won't go into detail - but it's behind me now - so all good! Today - the sun is shining and I have been very busy in the garden - just popped back in for lunch - going back out now!
