Last night I thought it was about time that I got back to making the crochet cardigan, which has been on the back burner for a while now. I found the four pieces I have finished but not the work in progress! Eventually I found that and the crochet hook I was using (not the disappearing crochet hook which has never appeared again!) but no pattern!! I do have craft stuff and all sorts of items around the place, I have acquired a lot of belongings since I moved here and no longer have room to put things away. So this morning I started a bit of a blitz and had a shopping trolley full of items for the charity shop. Very windy today but set off to the shop, dropped off a couple of Christmas cards as I went. I then took a walk into town and then up towards St Mary's church.  The mariners homes are  a really attractive row of properties.
I took a picture of the castle from outside the church yard.
Plus a picture of St Mary's on this bright blustery day.
On the walk back down I took an 'arty' shot of a tree!!
Back home I have had the music on and have been trying to label boxes and find homes for everything. I found the pattern, amazingly I had put it in an envelope with all the other crochet patterns! The I put it down somewhere and couldn't find it again (not much fun this getting older!). Found it again and it is now in the back with the cardigan. The man has been working on the wall today, a way to go but it should be sound for a good while when it is done.
I meant to say that the wind was so strong today, that walking away from the church, with the then empty shopping trolley, it actually lifted and I was walking along holding the handle with the wheels flying along next to me!!

  1. A very constructive day, for both you and the bricklayer!
    Glad it's not just me that has memory lapses :)
    Love the artsy pic of the tree. You've got a good selection of that sort of picture now, I'm quite envious. Shame you didn't get one of the flying trolley!

  2. Yes, good day really, managed to get into it, I just haven't really got stuck in for a while now. Doubt I will have a flying trolley again!
