The Waiting is Over
At last we have Richard Armitage back on our TV screens in Robin Hood. When I first saw pictures of him with the greasy long hair and new costume I wasn't too sure but the more I looked at them the more I liked them and when it was finally broadcast on Saturday I was drooling along with everyone else and I think he really has a Richard III look ( Read more... ) -
Funny Week
It's been a really 'bitty' week. I seem to have been doing lots of small things but I suppose small things add up to big ones in the end.

Weekend again.
Is it just me or do week-ends come round quicker these days?

I wasn't too sure about going down the Vista route but they all seem to come with it these days so I thought I'd just bite the bullet and get on with it. Transferring data is no problem but transferring programmes is a bind. I have learned, for future reference, that programmes I have ( Read more... ) -

Knitting
Finally cracked it with the pattern I have been struggling with. Stupid continental instructions are nothing like UK ones. It is a chart not line by line instructions like ours and it was not clear at all. Finally my brain suddently clicked, just as I was dropping off to sleep! -
Trying Hard
Have been trying to work how how Livejournal works. Not a lot of success but am getting there slowly.
