The Wireless and some needlework...

Spring is finally arriving and will scream in fast ..we have Winter and Summer here and very, very short Springs and Falls.  The leaves are fast bursting open on the trees , the grass is beginning to green up and I picked my first dandelion greens for the Guinea pigs (appreciated I may add).

 I listened to a Desert Island discs programme from 1977 P.L.Travers of Mary Poppins fame was the guest and she chose exclusively spoken word recordings of poetry readings ..it was a most enjoyable listen.
The programme is available to listen online or to download from HERE

Sewing is progressing in fits and starts...when I get five minutes ...but only if my eyes aren't too tired. (Darn it ) but anyway I'm still having fun with my  (typical? slap dash approach!

Now what shall I listen to next?

A Raven & a Mug (Oh and a Moose)

Progress update on Raven Wall Hanging (Sorry Sis....(she hates Ravens))

A few snaps of the pets ....
The Collie with his playmate the Wolfhound  that lives next door.

Erasmus the cat  16 years this Spring & hopefully still going strong.

& my New mug ...a total indulgence as we already have more than enough mugs ...but I fell in love with the cheerful colours and after gazing longingly on several visits to the store I gave in to temptation.... and I don't regret it.

It's almost Spring here ...leaves are starting to unfurl !  yes!!!! and the migrating birds are arriving. Whoo hoo for Spring/Summer.

Oh and if you've never seen a Moose shopping here goes....
