More knitting

A very dull week this week, although with the occasional bit of excitement. I started work on Tuesday in a new location - *only* 60 miles from home this time! And I get to drive right past Yarn on the way. Hmm. Will have to stop off there sometime when I'm not attempting to get to work on time. It looks like I'll still be away for half of each week as I've refused to do 4 hours driving on particularly Evil roads everyday so they're going to put me up in a B & B for a couple of nights every week to cut down on the driving! Hooray that also = more knitting time!

Below is my side of the garden, with snowdrops and crocuses appearing (although they got buried under more snow at the beginning of the week!). They show where the trees used to be as they were originally around each tree. The line of trees to the right of the shed (all cooking apples) are about half the number there used to be there...

I also had two days in London this week, instead of just one. One day was perhaps the most boring meeting ever, at the British Library. Everybody else on the committee is fairly high-powered, senior management, into-strategy/policy types. I'm the Minutes & Newsletter Secretary. And half the time I had no idea what they were going on about, I just wrote it down. Part of the problem was the meeting was scheduled for noon to allow everyone to get there (people had come from all over the country) so by the time it got to 1.30pm my stomach was joining in the strategy discussion very loudly... Didn't get out until 2.30. Grrrrrrrrrr

Then on to the dentist. Because of the dentist shortage in Lincolnshire I still have to travel to London for appointments (and God forbid I ever need emergency treatment!). Only the tube cocked up so I was late for the check-up so wasn't allowed in! I only got to see the hygienist. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Have had to rebook the check-up, but have now got to wait until May as they're very busy at the moment. Good thing it's only a check-up and I'm not waiting for a filling...

However, knitting is happening! :-)
Below is Cranberry, with only 2/3rds of a sleeve to go! And all the cables are the right way. I think.

I also finished off Mum's washcloth (how impressive is that? It's not Mother's Day for over a week!) and the Jaywalkers are coming along nicely. I can almost begin to envisage the end of the current WIPs...
