\nI have in the past only tended to make them in the lead up to the festive season, but I’m now beginning to work out that people like to wear them all year round, and maybe I could have paler ones for the the springtime.<\/p>\n
So that is one thing, another is that we have finally got the tree down from the top of the garden, well John lugged it down, not me!
\nSo after lunch I start the ‘excitement’ of doing the decorations, can you hear the delight in my voice : (<\/p>\n
But far more exciting than that is this,<\/p>\n

\nI have wanted to do this for ages, but never got round to it, I’m really quite pleased with it.
\nWhile I was sewing I was also listening to TMS<\/a>, which was great. I love sewing while listening to cricket, they go so well together, and this morning we did quite well with some fantastic batting from Pietersen<\/a> and Flintoff<\/a>, a real shame they both lost their wickets before the end of play : (<\/p>\n
