A lovely day




Yesterday we drove up to Sheffield Meadow Hall centre, had lunch then went to Winghams Wool Works just outside Rotherham so that Sandi could stock up on her wool topps etc for her felting work( shown on her web page), how she is going to get it back to Canada without paying excess baggage is a mystery but she will, I was very good and my little bag of goodies cost £10 - very good value for what I got, a mix of merino, mohair and silk in beautiful mouthwatering colours, each of the sheds stock different blends and there is so much eye candy. The three photo's are Sandi and I replete after lunch, my goodies and both of us in the merino wool shed not sure what order they will come up in tho'. My OH was wandering around very 'patiently' as usual. Just noticed how I spelt flying in the last post - whoops!

ANOTHER bag of goodies????? (Poor OH!!! At least he was spared the 'Pink Experience' this time!)
Anyway you both look like you had a good time - and some of the colours in this wool stuff are AWESOME!

WOW - what fantastic colours! Great photos of you both as well. Glad you were a little more restrained this time!!

Oh what a treat Maureen - perhaps Sandi will wear her goodies by wrapping them round under her clothes to avoid the dreaded excess baggage charge! Lovely colours.
