ELLA'S EGG-CELLENT ADVENTURES IN CROCHET

Ella has caught the crochet bug; she has carefully learnt the stitches and her first attempt has come out beautifully; more ostrich than chicken perhaps but hey! who cares! She is proud of it and I am proud of her.

P.s. Wore my tank top out and got a order to make one for a neighbour!!

TERENCE TURTLE

May I introduce to you....Terence, the crochet Turtle.
He has so far resisted all kidnap attempts by various small terrorists lurking within my family who wish to whisk him away . He is MINE all MINE....!

TEA BAG TANK TOP

Woo Hoo!! Back to the Eighties for me.....
I proudly present my Tea Bag Tank Top!

TECHNOLOGICAL DISCOVERY

Brand new Ipod shuffles DO NOT survive a 50 degree economy wash.
It does not clean them.
It does not change them from metallic pink to bright white.
It does them exactly no good at all.
So don't do it.
Unlike me.
Today.
To Ella's.
The end.

THE OFFICE

Have just finished watching the last xmas special of The Office.
Oh My God!!!!!!!!!!!
When Dawn left the party and then she opened her present!!!!!!!!!
Then when she walked back in and kissed Tim!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cry? OH YES and loved every soggy minute of it......
Sniff.

SOME NEW DISCOVERIES....

Out here in the sticks, television programmes that are worth watching are few are far between; a friend lent us some dvd box sets and I am loving.....
Gavin and Stacey....I have watched series one and two and am gagging to know if Smithy finally gets together with Nessa.......
And (yes, yes all you guys in the UK have watched it for years no doubt but...)
The Office......How brill is this programme; we stayed up the last two nights watching episode after episode; its toe curling stuff; thank God I had my crochet on the go cos sometimes David Brent was SO bad I couldn't watch.
As for Gavin - well I'd rather be celibate for the rest of my life than have sex with him! Yuk Yuk Yuk.
I like Tim though; He reminds me so much of my brother!! He is so sweet and what a brilliant actor who plays him; last night there was a bit where Gavin and this computer geek are discussing KungFu etc and just looking at Tim as he listened to their utter crap! The look on his face as he eavesdropped from his desk; I was just in stitches....!
