Baby It's Cold Outside!

Just dropping by to let you know that we shall now have until next Sunday, and then we will be back to normal and the word photo will be "black".
Of course I will post another "black" also!

Last night it was around 6 degrees Celsius here - the coldest temperaw ture for June since I don't know when. Tonight is shaping up to be just as cold, so we have the aircon on to try and keep us warm.  I hear that it has been below freezing elsewhere, so wer are pretty lucky I guess!

I have been very busy, knitting and crocheting my little heart away, still teaching myself to use the knitting machine, I really think that I need lessons!

I've started knitting some scarves - here's one that is finished:-


I thought that this little neck warmer was adorable -I've never seen anything like it, so I made one!


and here it is done up! Can't wait to wear it!

I am also working on a crochet blanket for the single bed in our spare room - almost finished but I took time out to make scarves!!

I'll show you more later this week, I've been too cold to get it all together for pictures!  So I'm afraid you will  have to wait for me to thaw out a l;ittle bit1!

Word Photo Challenge 2016 - Week 16

As I typr this tonight, the rain is simply pelting down - this is the best lot of rain tht we have had this year! It is wonderful to hear it on the rooftop, and see the water tanks full and overflowing! Our back garden is now underwater, hope there will not be too much flooding overnight, they are saying on the news that it is still coming over Brisbane and the south east, so there may be even more before this finishes.

We are safe and dry

So "black" was the word for today, and I'll guarantee that you can't guess what my picture is of!


Here is a not so good picture of our mini poodle, Tommy.  He is not so very well at the moment, though I suppose we should expect that, after all, he is 12 1/2 years old almost. He has been in and out of our vets over the past week, and we are just hoping that his xrays next week are better than the last.

Send him your best wishes, won't you - it looked like a tumour  in his lung last week, possibly. Like I said, we will know more next week after more xrays.

Join in with your black photo, and we can all visit you!!

It appears that something has happened to my Mr Linky - so you're off the hook till I investigate.

Word Phto Challenge 2016 - Week 15

Welsome back to week 15 of our challenge for this year!

Hope you all had fun with this word.

There are lots and lots and lots of directories, arent there?

I chose a couple from my computer:-


I thought that "phone directories" was as good a place as any to start



and I was right! So I chose 2 instead of the 100 or so!! I think that's renough to prove my point, don't you?

So join in with our Linky below and be a part of this week's word challenge!

Word Photo Challenge 2016 - Week 14

So we are back this week to show pictures of  our word , which is "universal" for this week.

Now first I must explain that I am not showing a picture for this week, as I forgot to take it and now it's too dark! So I am a very bad host, I know, but I also didn,t want to enter into my own prize give away. So that makes it a bit better. Maybe...,

So I now have to wait to see your "universal" and judge the most original one for the secret prize!

Sign in on the Linky below and be in the running!
