It's 05:15 this morning... I woke up to find Elko and his friend Matt still up.... and outside, having a counselling session with Mr Easter.. the snowman they just built. They had a snowball fight earlier, like at about 04:30.... I grabbed the camera and took this photo (and the one from yesterday's date, taken before they knew I was there).. they had such fun! But shortly thereafter they came in and had some cereal ... and then went to bed to sleep!

And this is the back of the jumper I want to finish. The aim is to get it finished before New Year's Eve... but the cables take a long time to knit, so we'll see if I manage to achieve it!

Nov 16 - socks for Elly - progress report!

Have not really knitted much on thses, as want to finish a jumper first. But tonight it was time to knit in these for a bit at my knitting club!

Can you tell we are not pleased with the mattress - which after exactly 1 year to date - is showing a peculiar bulge? 

It will be replaced apparently!  Quite right too!
