not much news

so I have not bothered posting. I cannot say that I am enamoured of this new layout either.
Grace is pleased, with her new cardi

 I had trouble finding some buttons and then I bought the latest  copy of Mollie Makes  and found that
the vintage style buttons were perfect.


The weather has been a disaster this month and we have had over 60mm of rain compared to the 2mm last year. However it brightened up today and reached a warm 19 degrees Celsius, yesterday it reached 3! Let us hope next month is better

What's going on here?

I miss a week's blogging and the format has completely changed. I  am not sure I like it either. I have no idea where the previous blog posts are. I can see them on the actual blog but you used to be able to edit old posts.

Any how I suppose I will work it all out. John has been to the hospital to have his cataract sorted out. Hopefully once he has his new glasses he will be able to see. We took a little trip to the allotment on Sunday. Things are growing
 not sure what these are. I know I was told!
 The rhubarb is doing well.
And so are these.


Grace finally has  her new cardi. All those buttons in my stash and none to match it though. So I shall have t have a  look in town next time I go.

The weather has been dreadful. Last year it was lovely, rather like March this year. In the past few days we have had nearly 30mm of rain. Oh well they said the UK had a drought so it rained.

unseasonably cold

Well the warm weather didn't last and on Wednesday we woke up to this



By the afternoon the sun was out and most of it had gone. Today it is sunny once more although quite chilly. We are forecast rain for the Easter weekend.

Tia has been clambering










My new ipod arrived a couple of Thursdays ago.


I am learning my way around its features.






Grace will hopefully have her latest cardi in a couple of days. I am so ashamed it has taken so long to finish it!
