Good morning all, Here it's overcast and rainy, for which we are very thankful, we're rather short of water round here, not Africa style drought (how awful must that be) but still the reservoirs are at less that half what they should be at this time of the year. It's not too cold though. We've got MIL coming for lunch from her care home, so we'll be quite busy seeing to her. I'll get some work done on my cross stitch sampler for my Dad's 80th birthday: a garden with the alphabet which I plan to adapt to give his details, also on the blanket I'm making for the charity which provides blankets and burial gowns for still born babies. I've got a few to send off soon, so when I've finished this one I've got to find a box to send them in. Hope you all have a good day Love & higs Christine
