AFTER THE VISITORS

I'VE JUST REALISED it's over two weeks since i looked at the blog.   i bombed out after three lots of visitors in three weeks.  It was lovely to have everyone up here and i just needed to lay low for a while afterwards.  It makes me realise that the three surgeries i've had since May took their toll.   I'm so glad i don't have any real commitments.  I can just take my time around the house and catch up with myself.

     nice to see sunny luke and etta out on a trip into melbourne and the         ngv.   I hope lockdowns don't recur with the new variant about

the white faced

heron has been

visiting a lot.

breeding over

the river

AT LAST!    René's gansey is finished and i'm very happy 

with it. now to send it off in the post, how nerve wracking

I HAD CHRISTMAS DRINKS here on the riverbank last week, perfect weather and a relaxed time. The white-faced heron dropped in to sam and di's delight, it 

has some significance 

for them

SAM modelled rene's jumper for us, looks like it'll fit :0)

a funny project, i started 

knitting a top down hat and

used photos of etta's hat as

a guide.  As i worked down, 

the whole thing became very 

strange. 

So i pulled a thread, split

it in two and made the

crown half into a beret,

the bottom half into a more

normal shaped sunhat
