We have been out to have some fun.
This gratuitous dog post was brought to you with no semblance of an excuse at all. Normal service will be resumed soon. Stress levels are reported as lowered. Over and out.

The island looks gorgeous today. The sun is shining, the snow is all but disappeared, and the Oyster Catchers have returned to add a little fun and colour to the landscape. I saw my first lambs of the year too – when not dazzled by the sun on the sea.
Speaking of colour – I went [...]

We lost the cats last night – they were missing when it came time for us to put them to bed. I found them on the chair in my workroom, looking very cute curled up there together. I grabbed the camera but Treacle left the scene of the crime before I could focus. Teddy, always [...]

Perhaps it is the distant scent of Spring in the air bringing on a light fever, but I do seem to be losing my marbles. I’ve got the first of a pair of Skew on my needles now. Will this be the first toe-up sock to fit me? We shall see, but I do love [...]

The first name out was that of pixeldiva, who has 7 days in which to contact me to confirm with her mail address. I am sure that I shall be hearing from her very soon but [...]

Where did February go?
I was planning on posting a Wordle map of each month’s witterings as we pass through the year. I did manage one for January. A few minutes ago I trotted off to Wordle to feed it my February archive and what did I find? Wordle is down! Apparently there is a legal [...]

Plans are all awry! Spinning Cake was burned and dry, and my lovely white lace project is frogged for the third time.
