Pretties from NZ
My brother and sister-in-law brought pressies back from New Zealand! So I thought I’d show one of mine off: The name of the colour comes from a New Zealand bird which has plumage in the colour of the yarn. Oh, … finish reading “Pretties from NZ”

And we’re back
I thought I wasn’t going to get to post today, because the website has been down since about midnight last night, and it wasn’t looking hopeful! But then my host fixed everything (hooray), and although I had to restore a … finish reading “And we’re back”

Coding, Comments and Connectivity
I’ve been faffing around with the design of the non-blog pages on this site today and yesterday… and I’ve made a right hash of it! That’ll teach me to try modifying someone else’s code rather than writing my own. I’m … finish reading “Coding, Comments and Connectivity”

Family Reunion
My brother and sister-in-law got home from their honeymoon today, hooray! They’ve been in New Zealand for two months, so it’s lovely to have them back and be able to see them and chat to them in person, rather than … finish reading “Family Reunion”
Repost for 18 Nov: In which my computer was unhappy, but my web server more so.
I should have taken a back-up after I posted yesterday. I should have known. But silly me, I didn’t. So the entry I did post is gone, eaten I assume by the server move that’s happening with my web host … finish reading “Repost for 18 Nov: In which my computer was unhappy, but my web server more so.”

Proof Positive
This will make more sense after reading the next chronological post, but the proper post from 18th Nov went missing. But! Here is proof that it did exist: Having heard back from the lovely Nablopomo mod, I have the go-ahead … finish reading “Proof Positive”
I fibbed
Well, sort of – I said I would post pictures of the finished shawl today, and I haven’t got around to taking and uploading them yet. What I do have is a sort-of, half-finished, almost new blog design. Yeah, I … finish reading “I fibbed”

Typing + tiredness = not working
Since I’m extremely tired today (I have new medication which is making me drowsy, hopefully just for the adjustment period, and every time I sit down somewhere relaxing I drop off!), I’m not going to say much again. I haven’t … finish reading “Typing + tiredness = not working”

Not-a-Friday 5
I have no blogging inspiration today, so let’s have a meme instead! I’m going to fall back on the Friday 5, which is always fun when I remember to do it! Friday 5 for November 5: Packing How far ahead … finish reading “Not-a-Friday 5”
