Sorry, I'm behind with the thread/list. I just popped back home to clear the computer of mail, collect a few supplies food/other so I found that 'fibernet' has awoken!
Happy New Year Everyone. I am currently not at home, although I am not far away, a short 20mins bus trip back to the nearest bus terminal to home. I am housesitting a rag weavers house/studio which is down off the road about but not on the beach. I can see the other end of the beach from my deck of the hillside. It does have broadband and stuff like that but it is still 'off the beaten track' the path up to the road zigzags up etc So although I could do some weaving there, I probably won't - I am supposed to be unwinding completely and relaxing/reading//dreaming. OH, watching TV etc. At home, I have been spinning a lot. I got out antique wheel #1 it's the Akehurst on this website. There are only 4 of them and I own one! http://www.nzspinningwheels.info/saxony.html Anyway, I hadn't spun on it for a while so I spent some time giving it some TLC but it had a couple of problems. To cut a long story short, the part that needed some TLC is away at a friends workshop. So I promptly had to get out my Hamilton (the one of the same page is a pals down south of here) and it has been purring along creating wonderful thread. No weaving, I don't have much time, even though it is my Summer holidays from Uni - at Home I am finishing the major sort up started last Summer and sorting/sifting out my belongings etc. But I plan to tackle some yarn dyeing when I return in late Jan. Apoligies is this is difficult to read, I left my 'computer glasses' down at the other house, and I have had to remeove my regular glasses to see the screen properly J Cathy in NZ, where the sun doth sun brightly and I am attempting to get a bit of a sun tan over the next 12 days left off my interesting Summer holiday J I may not see your replies for a few more days (unless I look on the website) [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
