And in case you think I'm not doing anything crafty, here's the cardigan I'm knitting. Mine is in 4ply merino in a dark purple (the photo colour is a bit strange, it's darker than this). It's knit on circular needles from the neck down which I haven't done before - I'm now on the long rib and cable part at the bottom. Then I'll pick up the armhole stitches and knit each of the arms on circulars. That just leaves the front band. Then voila! it's finished. No seams to sew!

Lovely colour yarn, Shirley... and I love Little Britain - it's quite a cult comedy programme over here. The kids all come out with the catchphrases... I'd hate to be a secondary school teacher having to listen to them all day!!!
I am anjoying your dumb Feng Shung quotes. What a great color. You have been quite productive. I will have to check out Little Britain on Netflix.
This quote is TOOO funny! My 11 year old has just discovered how cool it is to have two mirrors reflect each other! I must pass this on to her:) !!
