What's On Your Workdesk this Wednesday? Cat throw My new wool has arrived, and I am very pleased with it. It seems to be nice and soft, and of good quality. My hubby said he wasn't very impressed with the standard of packing, and I had to agree! However, the contents were fine.…
Well, what can one say about 2020? So much has been said already so I'm not going to say anything! - at least, about national and world events which I actually do have a great deal to say about, but this is not a political blog. I shall stick to my own personal…

I have never had a decent set of colouring pens and have always shied away…
