It’s been a long time, but I’m finally living back in Brighton, save for a few days a week when I help out Mum. I can’t believe how long ago it was that Mum broke her leg and I went to live with her, I don’t think any of us realised what a long haul [...]

Well it certainly has been a long week! Edinburgh was really great, I loved the city and Aral and I had a great time there. I was struck by how much space there seems to be and how wide the streets were. We stayed in a fantastic apartment, and I hope that we might return [...]

Tomorrow I’m off to Edinburgh, and I’m thoroughly looking forward to it . It will be my first time in the city, so if anyone has any suggestions of things to do/see particularly arty things let me know. I am hoping to at least visit a few art galleries. Of course the main [...]

On the list of things I never thought I would make, a Christening blanket is pretty high up there. First of all I’m not Christian and secondly, I didn’t think I could or would knit anything more complicated than a scarf. However, here I am finding myself being asked by a friend to make [...]

What a busy few days! Aral returned safe and well on Thursday morning, much to my relief. Of course as soon as he got home, jet lag struck and he promptly fell asleep for several hours, so it was pretty lucky that when he was at South by Southwest he had visited the Make: expo [...]

It seems like everyone is out of the country at the moment, and on Thursday that will include Aral as he goes off to SXSW in Austin TX. The traveling seems to be getting easier and I think it has a lot to do with being happier within myself and getting on with my own [...]
Phew!

I seem to have become the worlds worst blogger. I always have such high hopes and good intentions of blogging every few days, but lo and behold the same thing always happens. I keep up the blogging for a few weeks and then everything gets too busy and I get distracted with life, and forget [...]

I truly think there is nowhere better to be than England in the sunshine. Today was the first day of the Creative Stitches and Hobbycrafts show in The Brighton Center. I went along with my friends Relly and Jessica, and it was really very inspiring. The WI exhibition was really great and showed off [...]
