I'm Still Here!

Having finished the Peacock Shawl, life over the last couple of weeks has been more hectic than usual.

I've not heard from the guy who had Peacock for his girlfriend ( no reply to emails and voicemails), but I know he got it ok because I was able to check that it arrived safely. Ho hum - it would have been nice to know what he thought...

On the knitting front, I've nearly finished a top down hoodie for myself in some Jamiesons that I bought up in Scotland whilst on my honeymoon. I'll post pictures once I find my camera.

Helen and I joined Weightwatchers back in January and we went for our weekly weigh in last night. I've now lost a total of 15 pounds over the last 8 weeks and can see my feet when standing at long last! I've still got a long way to go, but things are moving in the right direction.

Last night I signed up for our local Race For Life event. I intend walking the 5km as I know I stand no chance of running it. The girls' are doing it aswell as they want to do it memory of their Granny. I don't normally ask this sort of thing, but if any of you would like to sponsor us, we'd be very, very grateful...

Here are a couple of final shots of Peacock being modelled by Helen...
