I am sure that it was Guyon's wife who was the subject of another story of alcoholism a few years ago, where she talked about her life and how alcohol affected it.

Which is a good thing. A good well made pav is a thing of beauty and very easy to eat. But not every day.

These books are so useful, for times when the world is just too hard to cope with. Times when we need to go along for the ride, but not be required to think too much, or be challenged to use our own imagination. I love a good hard puzzle to chew over, so my tastes run to science fiction of the British kind, or huge literary journeys that require total submersion just to keep up with the world created within the pages. But in between those deep dives there is nothing better than a fast Norah Roberts romance or a good guys bad guys chase from John Sandford.

But on my bedside table at the moment I am in Edinburgh, my Father's city, in Leith where he grew up, walking alongside Inspector Rebus. Who is aging far too fast...

Any of the oldies here? 

And why are these smilies so rude?

Sometimes beautiful but damaged books come my way because people know I like to reuse them in various ways. Today a dear friend brought me one of Tricia Guild's gorgeous books which has seriously sunburnt page edges, and handwritten notes on the title page, so it ended up in an Op Shop bargain bin. Just leafing through it is a joy, so much colour and gorgeous imagery...

But it won't stop me. My scissors are salivating at the opportunity to cut and disembowel. This lovely thing will be reborn in a new form over coming days, or at least added to the stash of inspirational material.

Well, it is cheaper than buying more yarn.

Don't fret, I'll do a crawl of the thread this evening and get you guys backed up. Can't go losing all that info!

Not sure when I'll get it uploaded, but it will happen eventually!

The Austrians have had a gutsful of the naysayers, scaredy cats and morons continuing to jeapardise the health of their vulnerable by no getting vaccinated.
They are about to enter into a lockdown where only the unclean, disease carrying unvaccinated citizens will be under house arrest.
Awesome for the vaccinated.
 Better traffic flow, plenty of room at the movie theaters, on planes, in restaurants. No line at the bank.

Not so awesome for the unvaccinated but we are doing it to help them stay safe.
They dont want to hang with us 'sheeple' anyway, so I dont think they will complain.
Bummer if they do, get vaxxed.

It cant start soon enough here.
