Hello

I love receiving your comments and get a great deal of pleasure from doing so. I always try to visit your Flickr photos, too.

Here is a little about me:

I have been knitting since I was about 11 years old. Influenced greatly by my late Mum who knitted beautifully, sewed, and also made all of my Sister's and my clothes. Mum was an inspector in a local silk mill which sadly closed down many decades ago.

I have been crocheting for just about a year now and am becoming addicted to this craft. I am my own worst critic and a bit of a perfectionist.

I love Roberts radios, Radio 4 and 7, photography, beach huts, London, cupcakes, reading, walking my Border Collie; Alfie, going to the pictures, visiting Vintage markets, baking and gardening. The best smells in the world are: Freshly baked bread, cut grass, the fresh air on our Norfolk beaches, linen from the washing line, Earl Grey tea, lillies and Parma Violets, Coco Chanel Mademoiselle. Old black and white films and films starring: Dean Martin, Laurence Olivier, Ingrid Berman, Dirk Bogarde, Lauren Bacall, Julie Christie, Nicole Kidman, Kate Winslet, Keira Knightley, James McAvoy, Robert Pattinson and Aidan Turner to name but a few.

Mulberry handbags and tea are my passion.

Goo Goo Dolls' "Iris" is my favourite song of all time. Not only is John Rzeznik a beautiful man with a gorgeous voice - he has a good soul, too.
