Of course this is still work in progress and I intend to finish it before the end of spring so I fear some digging will be in order. Cid Miles,

By the time it gets to March and April our expectation levels will be sky high and we must gird ourselves for disappointment. As usual though, a beautifully crafted article and I shall investigate salad burnett. Cid p.s. t-shirt wearing at this time of year is all well and good as long as you have your thermal vest underneath.... don't want you catching a chill and not be able to blog! Thank goodness I can't knit or I'd be forced to make a pair of mittens with connecting string so you wouldn't lose them ... and in purple too :) Miles,
