Where did my post go? I said something like: It’s still there. It should not be there, but it is. The reason it’s still there is because the large wrench was 1mm short of being able to grip the nuts. The oil is disconnected but the water remains to be done. The quarry tiles are …

Rainstorm
The up side of all the fevered tidying activity this week was in having brief space in which to block some knitting today. Tomorrow all the surfaces will be covered in Other Stuff. This is my Rainstorm shawl. Also blocked today: a matinee jacket and a pair of socks. Tomorrow we move the sofa and …
A handmade revolution
Can this be the only hand-crocheted banner supporting the Indyref? I’ll bet somebody knows better… This post is not necessarily a reflection of personal opinion – I just like the whimsy and the work that went into producing the banner.
Patience, no monument
Mr L had to pop back into the house at lunchtime after letting the dogs out for playtime. Suzie’s an old dog now and not wont to waste energy. She just popped her frisbee down and waited patiently for him to return. Photo taken through the window.

A Grey Day
I went out onto the garden for half an hour to see what I could blip. I came in with about a dozen frames but do not like any of them. It’s grey and chilly out today and we have a fire lit in the big room – not so much for the weather as …

Rabbit rabbit
[url=http://www.blipfoto.com/entry/4483001]Turts99[/url] recently asked how many rabbits were too many. He has a few more than we do. Discussing his post, my DH ventured the opinion that in our garden we have just the right amount of rabbits – which appears to be two, or sometimes three. They live in the nettle patch on the front …
