By day she's a hard headed, crook busting guardian of law and order. By night, she's your nan.... Deal's latest super hero, Crochet Woman.

You are not wrong.

As soon as that train pulls out of St Pancras out comes my hook and yarn and off I go.

In fact I'm on a train without them now and feel quite bereft.

A mix is always good. I could not get on with the pattern I was doing for FT's blanket so I carried on looking through the site you recommended and I am doing a really simple ripple blanket which I am finding lovely to crochet.

She does some beautiful stuff on that site and her instructions are so good.

Now nearer home at St. Francis, sitting next to a lady crocheting a hat for her granddaughter

The goods shed in Canterbury Reg. A hipster farmers market type place with several food stalls and as you see a butcher a fish monger bespoke beer stall. You can get it all from a head of broccoli to a bottle of Pouilly-Fume.

We are both going home with bikes loaded up with cheese....

She hasn't taken me there
Not so much as a mention

It's grey wet and horrible here.

Well, actually, I don't like. It was fine up till lunchtime. I even did an inspection walk down the towpath and had decided that it was dry enough to go out tomorrow.

Then

It started raining.

Beautiful 12C and sunny warm. Might go for a little pedal to Decathlon after lunch (Omlette complet + Salad).

I'm thinking an oubliette might be an option here.

Oh dear! Have you got access to online banking and can you do a live message chat to get that sorted out?

Egg and chips for lunch.

I raided a local Polish emporium.

Don't sell your bike. You'll not get what it's worth, it will probably not make enough of a difference on the debt front, and you'll have to find more money eventually to buy another. At least it is a way of getting exercise and meeting people.

I'm sitting here trying one of these out.

my neck is rather cold so it will be interesting to see how good it is when cycling in extreme heat.
