That's so interesting louby, thank you, I will see if I can find that book... Would it have been 'The Friday night knitting club' louby?
-
It's great isn't it I'm so pleased that I started that little group - it's such fun, we talk about a load of old nonsense and laugh so much... I have one lady who is an amputee wheelchair user, she suffered a stroke a couple of years ago (as if she hadn't enough to cope with) on week one she said "I don't think I will be able to knit because of the stroke" - set her up with needles and wool, cast on for her and she was away - she loves the group, it's worth it just to see how much pleasure it brings her!
-
Hey louby - that's what retirement does for you🤣
-
Too lovely!
-
Thanks Cait - what a convoluted way to get the photo on - text it to you first!!! I am super chuffed with it and we have enough squares to make three more!
-
Honestly, I wouldn't care (Mr S would though!) 😂
-
Badgers! I am green with envy, we were delighted to discover a badger set in our little field, but it's not in active use (well it is by bunnies!)
-
Ah don't -please not slug food... Mr S has grown all from seed - he loves all that sowing, pricking out, potting on malarky! Cosmos - a packet of seeds has only produced three plants - bit of a disaster really - but hey, three is better than none My input is the planting out and the dead heading and general care... 'Team work makes the dream work' and all that! 😂
-
That's it for today - I am 'done in' - have been planting out Sunflowers, dahlias, rudbekia, cosmos, marigolds and petunias - loads left to do, but tomorrows another day 😃 Mr S managed to get the tractor mower started so he is happy! Eldest son paid a visit to see where he needs to carry out a bit of fencing - we have his beautiful Sprocker coming to stay from Thursday and through the weekend, the last time she was here she 'escaped' from the field 🤦♀️ she came straight back when I called her, but it was still a 'heart-stopping' moment...
-
The mind boggles young Froglet 🙃 The 'pizza party' was very special, lots of laughter, I didn't realise that eldest son and family were attending too - what a bonus! Today - I am busy gardening, I have just come in for a five minute break Poor Mr S is struggling to start the tractor mower - how frustrating for him... Anyway - back to the gardening!
-
Morning all - tis Friday again! Hope everyone is okay? Very much looking forward to a family 'pizza party' this evening at youngest son's house (they have a pizza oven) - he has gone up to collect my eldest granddaughter from Uni, it will be so lovely to spend some time with her... Tomorrow will be gardening, gardening and a bit more gardening! Hope that the weekend is kind to all x
-
Oooh - sounds interesting! That's very organised of you! Because you exist solely for their convenience!
-
Shhhhhh - do not tell people about my 'furriness' 🤦♀️🤣🤣🤣
-
Have a wonderful day lovely lady xxx
-
We had to produce our forms at audit time - but I know that we have discussed this before and some of you lucky people have never experienced any sort of audit 😂
-
Oh yes I had forgotten that, we were quids in for all of ten minutes
-
I am going to sound sooooo ancient now - when funding was first introduced parents were supplied with a booklet of vouchers, they then passed on the vouchers to pre-school/nursery - it was all so simple
-
Oh Mousie - I remember the funding forms struggle - what is that all about - I don't understand why parents seem to not appreciate how fortunate they are to receive funding and it's not a lot to ask for a completed form is it... I might have once said to a parent complaining about the 'complexity' of the form "yes, you should try their portal, that's what I have to do to gain your child's funding" - I was having a bad day 🤣 Oh and the cost of printing the blessed forms, then being faced with half the parents saying "I don't know what I did with the form, can I have another one"
-
Whoop - way to go zigzag - you are in great demand! Have a great time with your son and his girlfriend tomorrow
-
Add another item to my list of WIPs - we (Knit and Natter group) are now making baby hats for our nearest hospital - whoop - I love a bit of hat making!
-
That two year old funding beggars belief in those circumstances - anyway 'just give me the code' is the right answer 👍
-
Good morning - tis Friday again Hope that the weekend is kind to all - step away from the dreaded TDLs if you possibly can x
-
D'you know, I am not even sure about the legality of requiring someone to sign a contract like that...my advice for what it's worth would be that your staff team should consult ACAS...and as for you my lovely you can just nod, smile and walk away from all of this
-
Way to go louby - what is it with Ikea, I could never get out of there without spending a small fortune!
