I decided, today, and yes I know it's a bit late in the day seeing as we're already in February, that one of my resolutions for 2020 would be to post something on here at least once a month. With that intention I sat myself down to write something 'interesting' and paled at the realisation … Continue reading Where did the last few months go?

The Knitting Friends in the Park are eight! Happy Birthday to us! Our birthday treat this year was a day trip to Yorkshire. We were lucky to be given some money by the council so spent it on minibus hire, which meant that none of us had to drive and we could have a relaxing … Continue reading 23rd August 2019
I’m back!
I've been very quiet on the blogging front - nothing since March! That doesn't mean that I haven't been knitting.

Not that anyone intends putting this theory to the test 🙂 Don't you just love those … Continue reading Which animals are best suited to surviving in snow?
The four Margarets
Do you remember the four Marys in Bunty? They were four boarding school friends who appeared in a girls'comic for around 40 years. You'd have thought that someone would have noticed them still at school after all that time but perhaps no-one bothered as long as the fees continued to be paid.

Looking back at 2018
A lot of knitting and very little blogging in the end, but that's life. We had a great year in our group; loads of chatting and laughs but also some sadness. Let's hope that 2019 is better for everyone. So far, winter has been fairly mild with only the occasional frosty day. The pavilion is … Continue reading Looking back at 2018
