To get this posting started, here is my latest funny story!
When demonstrating bobbin lace, the correct answer to "Is this the tattoo
parlour?" is "Yes". I found this out this year. A mother had left her two
daughters with me while she had gone to see the rest of the exhibition. She
then fainted and when she came round sent someone else to get them.
Unfortunately she didn't remember the term "bobbin lace" and said "tatting
demonstration" to the man, who misheard that as "tattoo demonstration"!

Subject: [lace] Teachers
Hi Arachnids
I recently agreed to join a team working on a Teachers Development
Program
for one of the major lace organisations. As part of my input I am putting
together a booklet of tips and anecdotes, humerous and serious, that may
help
budding teachers. I am sure my greatest resource is right here. I expect
many
Arachnids will be interested if answers are posted in 'Lace Digest' and I
will
also be delighted to receive them directly if you prefer to use my email.
To
help keep the reading light I will be including my cartoon of the 'Lace
Student', any cartoons that you have drawn yourself and any other ideas
will
be very welcome.
Keep lacemaking
Alex
