Morning all

Well my trip to the seaside turned into a right epic X-( and I didnt get me ice-cream ck 😞

But when I got back there waiting for me was a pressie from a large client that I have to deal with on a daily basis and who is lovely.

I am over the moon and think it may be best freebie I've ever had:-D

Want to know what it is ................

A pair of tickets to watch the rugby in Cardiff on saturday and hopefully see Wales win the Grand Slam :-D:-x

[numptz2012]

Awwwwww Stan, that's fab:-D

[stan3502]

I know 😄

I was dancing round the office like a kid in a sweet shop :^O

All the engineers are so jealous and all now wanna be my best mate.

But mr stan is coming with me and miss s and master n are in charge of the pub as it will be a very busy day for them.

Still grinning as I type this now :^O

[ilove2patch]

What a great gift! 🙂

Client's firm is a sponsor of the 6 nations and he knows I love the rugby (it's part of being welsh its bred into you).

Had sorted out emergency cover and repairs for him last week and this was his way of a thanks.

Cant believe my luck stuff like this does'nt happen to me 😮

what a lovely present Mrs Stan

you clearly deserve a nice treat:-D

hate to go OT

but

sewing

when i take sewing from machine, instead of 2 threads

i am getting 4

top one is fine

its from the bottom bobbin thingy

one is the "normal" strand

the other 2,

if i pull one end, it comes out easily

so its like its one piece folded in half and both ends come out the wee hole

is this making sense to anyone (except you numpts:^O)

am i doing something wrong?

can it be prevented?

doesnt seem to effect the sewing and doesnt happen everytime i take sewing out

[numptz2012]

Can I just say, if I disappear, it's cuz Rose has wind and even my Yankee tart ain't drowning out the smell:_|

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

wouldnt it make more sense to put the dog outside and you stay inside?:|

she is lying there enjoying yankees

and you are in the garden?

:_|

[numptz2012]

she's asleep on the footstool:|

Wouldn't be fair to wake her, she's snoring and there seems to be a little pool of dribble:8}

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

:_|

i KNEW there were lots of reasons i have a cat!

[numptz2012]

I think she's gassed herself:|

She's curled up so her nose is fairly close to her bum:|

:^O:_|:^O

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

she could be there for days locked in a vicious cycle:_|

[numptz2012]

:^O:_|

[ilove2patch]

*Has peg on nose* :^O

Merlin, rethread your bobbin. Take it right out & put it in again. Make sure there is no 'tail' on it from where you wound it.:-)

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

thank you Maggie

i did check all my bobbins for "tails" as i did wonder if it were that

i wound 6 before i started

(i wish i knew when it was going to run out)

maybe its just this particular one that did have a wee tail
