November roundup - late, as usual

So another month has come and gone. I was quite convinced that December was another six weeks away at least but no, here it is with all the attendant festive hoo-ha.

There has been knitting in November - another Damson, Feast for your Feet socks finished and sundry other projects started and, in some cases, finished. I can't show you because I still haven't replaced the lost camera. There has also been quite a lot of yarn acquisition. Well, if I'm going on a strict yarn diet next year then I need to be prepared. I can't show the yarn in because I still haven't replaced etc. etc. But there has been Wollmeise and some Knitabulous yarn.


I though you might like to see my brother's house. He lives not very many miles outside of London. This was the scene he woke to last week.

The cars are indeed Porsches. He lives next door to a Porsche dealer

How to get a flight to run on time

Earlier this month I took six flights in six days. Every flight - bar one - had problems including flight and baggage delays. One flight departure was delayed two hours! However, the last flight was problem free. We left on time with a minimum of hassle and arrived at the Sydney terminal over five minutes early!

I'm sure that it was purely coincidental that the airline CEO was on board.....
