If we go to the top floor we have a wonderful view right across Belfast to the hills beyond.<br /><br />Harry is very lucky you're so careful to keep him warm when the temperature drops. Temperature here at the moment is well into the twenties - for us, that's hot!nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10472673041193755894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9017882226857032208.post-29786929616288637402020-06-25T08:40:39.773+10:002020-06-25T08:40:39.773+10:00That made me laugh!

If you have the colour but it's too thick to use it's possible to undo/unravel the strands/ply of wool (or yarn as its called these days) so you can get it through the eye of the needle.<br />Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09487589871746402154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9017882226857032208.post-78444716567307513382020-06-23T17:15:23.016+10:002020-06-23T17:15:23.016+10:00I'm looking forward to frozen bubbles, I'm...I'm looking forward to frozen bubbles, I'm sure it will be cold enough soon!<br />I think the darning talent passed me too but We managed to salvage the jumper so I'm calling it a win :)kyliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08964475783207438103noreply@blogger.com
