Light at the end of the tunnel

Well, it's a bit of anticlimax really. I mean, getting to the end of the NaBloPoMo

I made it & remembered to blog every day for a whole month. I enjoyed it in an odd kind of way because I could just blog about anything & let's be honest, I have!

And because I've been knitting Christmas socks for ages, I haven't really blogged about knitting or pop, as I haven't been to any gigs for a while & I'm guessing that The Snow Queen & 42nd Street don't quite cut it.

I hope that I'll carry on blogging on a fairly regular basis although I think I'll try for a bit more knitting content or a bit more pop.

See you in December!!

News from a friend

I was going to write about the usual trivial crap & then I found out that one of my friends has been diagnosed as having breast cancer & is going into hospital next week!!

I don't think I can really write much today as I am a bit freaked out by it.

I just don't believe it!

I can't believe that I nearly messed up yesterday & missed posting so close to the end of the month. I know at the end of the month I won't post every day but I think that I will keep posting as I've enjoyed wittering on about nothing in particular!

As nothing very exciting has been happening, today is another cat pic day - Millie has now got a taste of internet fame & just wants more. Who am I to deny her?

close shave

Phew - I nearly forgot to blog today! I was in bed, tucked up with my hot water bottle & I woke myself up & came to write today's entry for NaBloPoMo. And what an arse that would have been so close to the end of the month!!

Back to bed then - see you tomorrow

Cloverfield

I'm very excited, I've just seen the 2nd Cloverfield trailer!

The trails for this started back in the summer, with the first trailer being shown in the US after The Transformers & the Unfiction forums went mental, with hundreds of posts appearing hour after hour & this first trailer being ripped to pieces & every little detail being analysed a thousand ways.

They were right - the film is called Cloverfield & it's looking good & creepy but we've got to wait until Feb 2008 & it's out on the 18th Jan in the US, so it's a fair bet that we'll know all about it by the 20th.

Arts and Crafts

I love the North Bristol Art Trail for a number of reasons, not least because I get to squiz* at other peoples' home.

So I joined in today, traipsing round the badlands of Bishopston, checking out the (mostly) over priced 'arts' & generally having a good luck at the houses that were open. And then I found this, which just took my breath away.




Obviously, I want to see other crafters getting on & making money from whatever it is that they do but come on!! This is just taking the piss! The yarn this person was talking about was cheap shit, pound shop yarn which feels lovely the first time you touch it but after about 10 seconds goes all yucky - argh, it annoyed me so much I had to go home!!


I did find some things that I loved - these bracelets, this jewellery, this jewellery and these prints & there's my wish list for the coming year.


*squiz - to look around in a very nosey fashion

Quick blog post

I'm visting friends today so this is a really quick post & it's something that I've 'found' over at glittyknittykitty.

What kind of knitting needles are you?

You are plastic.Futuristic, milky, and silky, you are willing to go where no crafter has gone before. You can do just about anything, with strength agility, and pretty colors to boot! While you are good at slipping and sliding out of sticky situations, remember to stay where and when you are needed. Don't overdo it on star gazing when there's earthbound knitting to be done!
