Blogtober - Post 25!

-

    I've got to be quick because my battery is running down. I am not used to having to charge the laptop as much as I've needed to this month and it tends to catch me out unawares.

    I've had a look at the Snowman today and I've decided not to be too finickity about the neatness of some the finishing features. After all, the ones we build in the winter (when we get snow!) are never that neat - they can't be - so perhaps I can get away with a bit of roughness on the buttons and so on.

    I thought I'd be able to bring you the Yuletide Blanket update tomorrow as I only had a couple of squares left to work the current round on, and then I moved a ball of wool, and found at least four more! I just hope I haven't put any more squares in another bag, 'coz if I have - I can't remember which one!😳

    Autumnwatch started tonight. I've recorded it as always but I'm in two minds about watching it. I'll let you know.

    See you tomorrow.👋😴

      It's amazing what you can forget at times, it's remembering WHY it's there that's often trickier!

Blotober - Post 2!

    You would think that with it being a Sunday, I would have had plenty of opportunities to post my intended Blogtober post. But no. I haven't even touched a computer today until now because there always seemed to be something else to do! And I don't suppose any of it was particularly important. Ever have days like that?     So instead of that post I'm going to do a Sunday Waffle. A quick ramble about the day and anything else that pops into the noggin as I type. Minus the swear words. Probably.       It was pretty grim when I got up, it looked like it had rained🌧️ all night, but the sun soon came out☀️ and it was bright till about early afternoon when the clouds started gathering. Somewhere across the road someone had lit a garden fire, smoke blowing up the road so at least this time we didn't get the stink of it.🔥     We did have a fab dinner at lunch time! Rib Bones in a sticky Chinese sauce served with mash, peas and carrots. Golly it was yummers!!😋 😋I haven

     Hello! I'd like to start by asking a few questions to those of you who have been using silicon-handled hooks longer than I have.     In the last few days I have notice that the hook I'm using most has developed a weird ickieness to the handle. It's not sticky or rough, just not right. My others don't feel like this. I even washed it the other day and if anything it made it slightly worse.      Could this be a reaction to the hand-cream I use in the evening to lessen the roughness of my fingers? Is there a way of fixing the issue, and is there a best way of storing and caring for this style of hook? Comments and solutions would be most appreciated.😀     I finished reading "The Tears Of The Salamander" Monday night, and tonight I will start reading something else. I'm just not sure what yet, it may end up a point and grab situation. Whatever it is I probably won't have read it before and I'll let you know what I choose.      Yesterday I mentio
