The Blue Beer Bottle Holder and other things!

Today I'm feeling particularly happy because a certain


has taken off for another year to be forgotten until 2009.
Except, of course, for the

cause they celebrate Easter in April.

I got a wonderful photo from my daughter, Stella
(who lives in Greece and is a very important person!)
of her and my granddaughter, Dimi


I am amazed at how quickly Stella's hair has gone grey! Must be the kids or is the pirate girl that is sitting her lap that's got her worried.




Now this person is the Greek Viking Queen of lace Knitting.........
no other than the great

I find her hat arrangement most attractive!

I also found this on the net............and whilst I'm not totally opposed to Christianity (only the horrid fundamental claptrap that some go in for!)........... I could not resist posting this. I think I just have a very warped sense of humour.


Now onto a lighter note........................
I've finished my Frivilous Fantasy Competition Entry for a group called Freeformations on Ravelry.
It's called a Blue Beer Bottle Holder and had to fill the requirement of having 'b' in the item. So it's blue, it has beads and bobbles, it has frenchknitted Braid, it has bullion stitches in it and it's holding a Bottle of Beer.



The scribble lace is coming along nicely as well....................I am determined to keep knitting until I finish the pink ball of yarn. It was going to be a curtain but I think it's gonna be a wrap now.



Oh and I can't resist...........................................

"" George W Bush has backed Kevin Rudd's decision to withdraw combat troops from Iraq. In a strong rebuke to the Howard government notion that the US-Australia relationship was contingent on the close personal friendship between Mr Bush and John Howard, the US president has warmly received new Prime Minister Kevin Rudd at the White House.""







Now does Georgie look warmly happy or does he look warmly happy! The only person smiling is Kevin! Maybe Kevin wasn't as obliging as our little Johnnie and that's why George is looking so perplexed! Or could it be that George is waving goodbye to us.........................hasten the DAY!





See.............I have a new hairstyle too!
