[ilove2patch]

Just driven to my local shops, bought a few bits, then driven back   😄

Toes feel sore, but just realised that is because sock is pulling on dressings when I press the pedals. With last foot I could do without socks  😮
Haven't tried a full shoe yet as toes are sore, but may pull put my Ugg style boots tomorrow  😉

Will be driving to Doctors, then to my Craft Group tomorrow 😄

[**towery**]

I have a friend who drives in flip flops! 😞

[learning2me]

Can't even walk in flip flops, never mind drive in them.:O

I am wearing a sandal with an open front, but need a sock to keep my toes warm 😞

I know it's really not a good look, but what else can I do 😉

[petitecalicocat]

It dosnt matter what it looks like learning as long as its warm , i hate cold  feet .

Back from shopping in Nottingham didn't get what i wanted so still need to go again ..what a shame ]:)

I did get a picture though for a pound in a furniture shop sale the frames worth that anyway 😄

[huggles1253]

Hello, for back at last! Had to phone talktalk and they sorted out the problem. I just said my name was Mike and gave them my (his) date of birth and they sorted it out. Bit worried that I can pass for a 71 year old man on the phone! 

So? Have I missed much?

[ilove2patch]

No. We have been extremely well behaved & quiet.:-) Oh & everything I look at lately breaks.:|

[stan3502]

I behaved :-x.......................

Just.........................:-p

Did O/H have to entertain you or did the sun come out and save you from that fate B-):^O

[chickengrandma-2008]

I'm always good.:-)

[ilove2patch]

Me too! lol Off to bed now. Quilting group tomorrow.:-)

[huggles1253]

Good morning! Off to work today, holidays come and go so quickly! Also, because ours is a small business, all the things I would have been doing last week will be waiting for me today. Still I did all the washing and ironing over the weekend and have made a lamb stew for tonight so come five the evening is mine! Tempted to go and sign up for an exercise class as I didn't feel right in my bikini this time! I think the awful weather this summer has made me eat too much! On the other hand I could do some sewing. 🙂

[ilove2patch]

Sew! You need a little extra fat in the winter.;-)

[learning2me]

Morning

Really looking forward to driving to Doctors and Craft Group today 🙂

Doesn't take much to please me 😉

[****merlin*****]

good morning ladies 😄

hugs to all the poorly parts

i took up the bookmark challenge

i made a bat

it was too thick although i used thin material 😞

it would warp a book if left in

and it kept falling off my kindle :^O

back to the drawing board

[petitecalicocat]

Morning everyone 😄

Smiling at Merlin's fat flat bat  😄

My heatings gone a bit strange  , one bedroom rad is extremely hot even when turned off ?:|

[****merlin*****]

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

1st one i made from a very thin black material, almost see through

i made it inside out and turned

twas too thick

made another

one part only of thin felt

i made his face pop out and fangs hang over to mark the page so you could see his eyes above the book

its still too thick 😞

now  i need to make more to have a garland of bats for halloween :^O

[stan3502]

Morning all

Loving the idea of a bat garland merlin 🙂

Have a great day at craft group learning and enjoy the drive :-x

Off to manchester late this afternoon for talks with the brewery as cost me far too much the last couple of months:|

Glad you enjoyed the holiday huggles but agree with maggie no need for exercise classes until at least after the xmas excess

[captainbovine]

morning peeps:-)

Merlin, could you make them out of felt? then they wouldn't be too thick. that crocodile of mine is made of fleecy felt like material and it two layers.

stan....good luck this afternoon, hope it all goes well, after all surely they want you to stay open they are losing pubs hand over fist these days!!!!

keeping me three hooves crossed for you.
