• It would seem I failed to publish the last entry

  Oh well. It was just a run down of how quiet Christmas had been (other than the last verse of Hark the Herald, which achieved an impromptu 4 part harmony at midnight mass – and was particularly impressive given that it was nearly 1 am at that point. The vicar likes to chant, which is why it took a congregation of 70 about as long as it takes a congregation of 200 for mass).

  There has been some rather nice presents, some sploshing round getting lost running near my parents’ (note to self, do not allow Dad near muddy trainers if you don’t want them to be, literally, dripping wet by the time he’s done), a trip out to see Dad’s canal works on Boxing Day, and not enough knitting. In fact, there has not been any knitting.

  I did try knitting today. It hurt. So I’m still sewing. And frustrated by it. I do have some rather nice quilting to do, and I’m finishing off Em’s cross stitch sampler. I sewed and mended while at my parents’ too, and, all in all, the sewing basket is looking remarkably healthy. But Oh! I want to KNIT! And it just hurts.

  And, on that note, I’m going to go and order an inflatable TARDIS for a guiding event. As you do.
