Almost Here

Thanks for the good wishes. I'm much better now. New Sue Rangeley book out in January and we'll hopefully have one from Isobel Hall, too. There is a rumour that she might do free classes. Fingers crossed.


Well, you don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone, as the song says. We lost our broadband connection this week – first time in about ten years, so I guess we’ve been lucky. Don’t you just miss it? It’s not properly back yet – all the companies blaming each other, of course. I can only get on line on the laptop with wi-fi. I’ve had to use it in some strange places around the house and I think we’ll draw a veil over the episode in the downstairs loo. That was the only place it worked at one point. I’m at my desk in a quite normal situation at the moment but this will be a short post in case it goes again.

What a great excuse to buy an iphone. I’ve wanted one for ages and it’s so exciting. I can get on-line with it – yesterday I even got my emails but today I can’t. Will investigate tomorrow. It even works on the docking station although they said it wouldn’t.

I’m busy making cards for Workshop on the Web’s gift subscription scheme. If given as a pressie, the recipient gets a hand-made card and the subscription details and the giver get an extra issue of WoW. Anyone interested get in touch with fiona@workshopontheweb.com

I love making cards – do you like my mulberry bark angels with tassel skirts? Good to do some fun hand stitching in the evening.

Must go now in case it disappears – quit while you are ahead I reckon. Back soon.

You temptress you!! More books - oh dear. I'm a self-confessed bookaholic and Sue Rangeley's work is gorgeous. I already have two by Isobel Hall which are excellent so her third is bound to be a 'must-have'. I love your cards with the angels. Hope you get properly connected soon - it must be so frustrating for you both. We shall all imagine you now, sitting in the downstairs loo working on your laptop!!

I think I might have to treat myself too as my family don't always understand my interests - last year I told my son the books I wanted were on Amazon - he only half listened and on Christmas morning I opened a book --------- on THE AMAZON!!!!!!!!!! - so if I wnt one of your gorgous angels Maggie I'll just have sort it out myself!!!!
