Re: [lace] internet surprise
Hi Alice and Arachnids, Had not really thought about doing a jigsaw on the computer, thoroughly enjoyed doing your jigsaw; but... it stopped me doing my lace! It is also nice to see your photograph. By the way, there is a picture at the top right of the jigsaw when you click on the little square symbol there. The Seven Sisters Lace Society also has a 2nd hand sales table on their annual special Lace Day (Seaford, East Sussex, 13th May, 2012) as well as a lace competition -The Olympics this year, what else?-. The sales table carries lace surplus from any lace-maker, marked with the price that lace-maker wants for it. The society retains 25% of all items sold for club funds to keep the fees down so it benefits everyone to some extent.

On another subject, our regional lace group has started having a spring event call Spring Housecleaning Swap Day. We gather to make lace and trade or give away the excess lace supplies we no longer need. it's just a good excuse to spend the whole day having fun. And a good chance for beginners to pick up some thread, tools, or books.. and sometimes even a pillow.

[lace-chat] Fw: men's helpline
Letter to a men's helpline... Hi Bob, I really need your advice on a serious problem: I have suspected for some time now that my wife has been cheating on me. The usual signs: if the phone rings and I answer, the caller hangs up; she goes out with the girls a lot. I try to stay awake to look out for her when she comes home but I usually fall asleep. Anyway last night, about midnight, I hid in the shed behind the boat. When she came home she got out of someone's car buttoning her blouse, then she took her panties out of her purse and slipped them on. It was at that moment, crouched behind the boat, that I noticed a hairline crack in the outboard engine mounting bracket. Is that something I can weld or do I need to replace the whole bracket?
