I was expecting Alon to go, even though he won the brick making part, as his final piece and use of the slip was a mess and technically poor.

When the sun comes out we should all hopefully have time to sit in it and relax.Sue https://www.blogger.com/profile/04947919568474743963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5648310406783744033.post-82618415482293216032021-01-18T08:41:28.946+00:002021-01-18T08:41:28.946+00:00lol - I honestly can't help it, having survive...lol - I honestly can't help it, having survived on it for decades! Happy sewing and thanks - I'm glad half the space in the cupboard is taken up with the water softened so it's not going to take as long as it looks, so to speak. It doesn't take long to clutter up either, does it?Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16116524003944939298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5648310406783744033.post-36985264898587769602021-01-18T08:07:38.309+00:002021-01-18T08:07:38.309+00:00I have many teacher friends and I know that 't...I have many teacher friends and I know that 'teacher mode' well! I have a jumper to finish sewing today for little Freddie when it finaly comes light enough to see and as I am running behind (had to redo one of the seams) DH is going to do the dinosaurs for the cake. Good luck under that sink - I am OK for kitchen cupboards having just had new installed they are still quite in order (maybe not for long though!).wherethejourneytakesme2https://www.blogger.com/profile/01331935561823130257noreply@blogger.com
