Woollie Weekend

Beautiful blue sky weekend...cold and bright and did I have my camera......

Spent Saturday at Dollar Glen with the National Trust doing footpath repairs and moving signs....it was great to be outdoors working again - our last project was cancelled so I hadn't been out since November. You'll need to click the link to see other people's photos of Dollar Glen and Castle Campbell.

I have also spent a lot of time these past 10 days helping good friends get ready for their move to Paris - not easy when you have to pack up a 4 bedroom house, with an almost 3 year old around. So we've wrapped and packed and boxed and stored and taken trips to the dump and eaten a lot of takeaway and finally today, was the last day, the leaving party.....a good old British Afternoon Tea (for our Costa Rican/Mexican Brits) with crustless cucumber sandwiches, crumpets, scones (made by me) with clotted cream and homemade raspberry jam.....

It was a lovely afternoon, but a sad afternoon, friends who have been part of my life for almost 9 years moving on....taking their adorable daughter with them and the bump......who knows when we will meet baby number 2.....

I have managed a little crafting and the latest blankie is progressing.

But as you can see, Little Red could do with a little more work!

Oh and the other excitement around here this week....the arrival of my new Camper shoes, straight from the  headquarters in Mallorca......comfy!

And a final little footnote....the old blog was 3 on the 28th of January and this is post number 348....perhaps I'll have a little giveaway when I hit post 350!
