I’m off to a good start with the scarf. The Elenya yarn is delightful to use and the pattern is easy to remember. I’m working alternate stripes of each colour and they’re blending very nicely.

Sadly our little dog Douglas who was 15 1/2 yrs old passed away suddenly on Thursday evening. He’d been losing weight for a couple of months and was under treatment for suspected bowel disease which seemed to be stabilising him.. in the end though it was his heart that gave out. It was extreme...

I’ve been a very bad blogger recently and many apologies for not posting for such a long time. It took ages for us as a family to recover from the repeats of Christmas illness which in the end saw pretty much all of us on anti-biotics to sort us out. Being ill with colds/chest infections/tempe...
