Has it really been almost 6 months since my last post! We've now entered the dry season in Bangladesh - the drains have some time to recover!

FuzzyFingers: August 2012
http://fuzzyfingersuk.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, 30 August 2012. As I seem to have been rather short on crafting time and very few if any projects worked on let alone completed, I thought I would share a couple of thoughts with you. I bought this birthday card for a close friend but it was only when I got home that I read the little sticker on the cellophane saying 'Don't forget to pick up your envelope! Have you got any little mottos, ditties or witticisms that you love or live by? If so, please share them and let me know . With swimming, cy...

Tuesday, 27 November 2012. Christmas Fair Saturday 1 December. It seems to be the countdown to the big day starts earlier every year and as some one who has a November birthday, I've grown used to seeing decorations and lights up around the same time. There is something lovely about seeing it all especially with all the dull wet days we've been having. Also, having an enthusiastic 5 year old can't fail to raise a bit of festive cheer and excitement. Rugby ; Coventry Greyhound Trust. Promote your Page too.

Monday, 30 July 2012. Proud to be British. With all the hype and media coverage, it can't have escaped anyone's notice that the Olympics. But I have also found myself drawn into things like archery, swimming and diving. Although there was a cynical part of me expecting some hiccups in true Brit style, I was amazed at the fantastic opening ceremony. Danny Boyle has such vision and cinematic skills it was a triumph, also supported by a truly excellent British soundtrack. Loved it! Here in this photo, the e...

Wednesday, 20 June 2012. Every once in a while, something happens that makes me smile and think that there are some lovely people out there. Like a lot of crafty people, I love websites like Ravelry. And visit them daily. As well as being able to download patterns, they are valuable sources of inspiration as well as being a gallery to showcase your own work.
