Arrrr...that be tray-shure

(if you speak in a pirate voice, that heading DOES make sense!!)

I was going to buy some lovely yarn and wool at the fair, but I decided against it as it was all very beautiful wool and I felt I just couldn’t do it justice with my amateur crocheting. So, I was planning a little trip to Big W to stock up on a heap of coloured wools- until I found this!!!

Our Family is in the process of cleaning out my darling Grams place (she's ok - just in a nursing home for the permanently bewildered) . Anyway I was going through a cupboard and I hit the mother-load treasure. 2 whole boxes full of wool for granny squares!!! There’s a heap of baby wool too which is very handy as my new brother-in-law’s wife is due in July!!

OFF WITH HER HEAD!!

Mr Honi and I had a LOVELY weekend. We had lunch on one of my favourite pubs - PJ's in Drummoyne. I love the decor and the cosiness of it!
Then yesterday we went Strike Bowling! I haven't been bowling in AGES and it was soo much fun.
Mr Honi has a rather large and rather terrifying (if you're standing behind him) wind up.
Then we caught a ferry back to our car. On the walk home we passed a construction site where massive units are being built amongst sweet, quaint little houses. It's such a shame as it already looks like it's going to be a modern monstrosity compared to the heritage houses surrounding it. Anyway, on the edge of a pile of discarded items they've obviously found on the dig I found the head of a china doll. I have no idea if she's old or worth anything (if she had a body) but I just thought she was quite interesting! :) It wasn't stealing as it was in the rubbish pile and i felt funny picking her up but I just had to rescue her!
