Have you noticed? Or is just me that feels the summer, as always, is flying past!
My job is a '52-weeks-a year' job so I do have to work over the summer, although I try to
save as much of my annual leave entitlement as I can for the summer. I find myself trying to squeeze in days out and away with family and friends around work commitments.
I do love the summer, I relish the opportunities to sit outside to eat meals - eating
breakfast outside feels so decadent, especially at 6am before I go to work, why is that?
I have to make the most of the longer (and hopefully warmer) days and spend as much
time as I can out of doors.
time as I can out of doors.
I am having fun knitting Rachel Coopey's Hartwith hat using Baa Ram Ewe's
Titus yarn in Goathland. This is 4 ply yarn so for me it will take a while to complete this
knit but there is something very soothing about knitting this cabled pattern.
I have almost completed Susan Howatch's 'The High Flyer'. This is the second in a trilogy
but silly me read book three first so I have in effect nearly finished the trilogy. It has been
an interesting read although I have found the end of book 2 a bit laborious and tedious.
This trilogy is being passed to a friend when read so that will be 3 more books off my
shelf - YAY!
.I am joining in with Ginny's yarn along - please have a look at her great blog.
Happy summer holidays to you all
xXx
