GET KNITTING

.

Normally at this time of year, Lo the terrible Goddess and I go to southern Portugal to escape the British winter. Unfortunately there’s too much going on to be able to manage it this year.

So, can you please all start knitting me stuff so that I don’t freeze to death – thanks. [Please let 70’s not see this, please let 70’s not see this ………]

(Oh, yoohoo 70’s …….. Lo,TG Ed)

    she may have been able to knit as a teenager so her diaries say, but now she uses chop sticks, i think she may have lost it. Her arm would not be able to cope. bless her her little cotton socks

    daddyp replied:

    Oooooo …… yes, she can’t knit at the moment can she? ……. every cloud ……….

    It won’t be long you know …….

    daddyp replied:

    Take your time ….. you need plenty of rest. I think that the surgeon mentioned something about several years before you could play the chop sticks again … you might not have heard him, being a bit groggy an’ all ……..

    daddyp replied:

    Oh hello …… I’d just like to say that obviously I’m in crisis mode about something or other ….. [I know a rude joke about mustard actually ...... but I'd better not repeat here - tee hee]

    70steen replied:

    I’m trying very hard not to use the words ‘knit’ and ‘wit’ in the same sentence……

    I’m a little under the weather yet, but will commence knitting as soon as possible. I hear knitting with needles is something to avoid when using the kinds of medications required to endure the extreme suffering bestowed upon fraccy women following the *torture* of surgery on nether regions.

    I also hear it’s wise for all those aquainted with such women, to send gifts of chocolates and wine.

    I have graciously posted a mailing address on my blog. I am such a hard-worker. I love to help others even while suffering myself….

    I’m very glad that your nether regions have been mended – your lovely sister has been keeping everyone up to date.

    Now sit down ……. CAREFULLY! …….. while I bake a cake and pour some Chablis. Do you want to watch the telly?

    Oh do please pass me a glass Daddy. How I love a glass of Chablis… great minds and all that. Did go trick or treating?

    Hello Mumsy – my lovely pressy arrived yesterday – I’ll be writing about it shortly. *BOO* – oh, it’s a bit late now isn’t it?
