Only problem is that the two tornadoes which blew through here Sunday night have left it somewhat untidy - especially as most of the homes destroyed were ones which were only partly restored after Katrina.

You did way better than I did. I got as a far a Stay At Home, but the il stumped me.

I did not think his request was q proper request, but i give him the benefit of doubt , that maybe he is in an Enormous need / or maybe he doen`t know how to go about inviting /ordering designs .... none of us know his life circumstances ,,,,, thus why be rude ???? Many people jere don`t hesitate to down load FREE patterns , a few don`t hesitate to sell patterns ,,,, There is a WIDE space between Not being Rude , and Be Nice ....
I have no intention of sending `my designs` to anyone.. but it doesn`t mean i have to be rude about it. As to buying bridges ....that is an Age long joke ,,, What is the difference between buying /believing to propaganda and being coned by stupid schemes like that ??? mirjam
Thank you Tia Mary for your evaluation of my Awareness , of spammers, and so called Jokes,,,,,,, If i think the man is a spammer i just ignore his post. And this just enhanced my feeling that Bruce so called joke was Plain rude , and uncalled for. If somebody here lacks Awareness , it sure isn`t me. There is an OTHER world Out there outside the English/American space . mirjam
It wasn't a joke, it was irony.

Ah but is he nice ? Interrupting our conversations with spam ? That is rude !
Anyway, as you know Mirjam, I will do what I will do but maybe you have made Bruce feel bad by correcting him. That poor, lonely man stowed away on a remote island off the Scottish coast in northern climes ! Think how badly YOU have made him feel ! Why, he is probably quite suicidal by now !
SPEW! not with all that lovely whiskey....

Good for you Mirjam, you keep on trying to get us needleworkers to be what you consider polite by your example. VBS
Did I mention "tongue in cheek" in one of my previous posts????? Poor Bruce, I wonder if he has any chockie to go with that lovely whiskey. Just for basic dietary purposes and needlework related issues, of course!!! CiaoMeow >^;;^<

It was worth tormenting MJ to bring forth this site ! I have saved the Orkney Fudge Cheesecake and White Choc Sorbet, ahhhh yummy. Now off to bottle some wine, I make that and likewise, rarely touch spirits anymore.
We left our house one day, 8 of us in a pickup, 4 of us in the back, to take friends from out of town to the French Quarter. Heard the train from the very close by tracks, but when we got there, no train. Came home hours later to police lines taped all over our street, stuff everywhere, the neighbors house was missing the side - completely, etc. Another neighbor told us, we saw you drive down the street & right behind you, here came the tornado! With 4 people in the back of the pickup (even with a topper on it) you'd think one of us would have been looking out the back window!
But I'm very glad to know you are ok!!!!

I am going to visit you!!!
I cannot guarantee having any of the above items on the menu and Maureen may be wary of ladies who suddenly turn up on the doorstep! But Orkney is a truly magical place to visit. Check out the weather first

That was years & years ago, but the weird part was really having it hit home just how erratic tornadoes can be. The house across the street was almost destroyed, & there was hardly an extra leaf in our yard. It was as though it was playing hopscotch down the street!
Unless Maureen gives her blessing, I won't come visit.
