Dreamyknitter 2 Report post Posted July 10, 2009 Oh golly I'm so excited it's like Xmas eve! The rain came, the landscapers left, hubby volunteered to mind the kids, and I'm off on a day trip tomorrow to a town about 50 miles away with ten other ladies from our knitting club. (big smiles!!).... Mental note *remember your flexible friend* Big news, one of the crafty shops we're visiting is only recently opened....by my sister! The other wool shop is lovely and an 'old reliable' in that she stocks Sirdar, Patons etc (no offence to them) but Helen's got Maggie Knits, Rowan, Artesano ssswwoooon I cannot believe I will have time to browse and not have Victor pulling out of me or throwing buttons around the shop! Also visiting the new M&S, going out to lunch (hic!) and to a design centre/woollen mills. This probably wasn't worth making a new topic out of, but hey, a day without cooking, nappies, housework, kids, OH and all the other trappings is a day worth shouting about :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
