Much bigger than I thought, was thinking the knot was 10cm so would not need as many so 2 or 3 on a diagonal at the top of the stairs would look good as 26cm is quite large, will need to think about it, thanks for the info Pen.Originally Posted by Pen

It was only messing around so that I had a project to get the kids to do next year, but I may well look at making something like this as proper six inch tiles

What about a week off after each school holiday, plus a week off before the summer holidays? So, 7 weeks holiday a year?
I say a week 'off' but I doubt anyone will be able to stop you working on your personal projects during those times.
So just 7 weeks a year with no classes?
Yes something like that. I have the last week of June booked to go away and only three weeks later the summer holidays start so I was thinking that I would make that two weeks off together, one away and one at home. I think I have six weeks marked off excluding the run up to next Christmas.... I am not sure that it is a bit excessive though as it comes to 35 days holiday a year...
Mike, I take your point but the Summer season is a big one for me, if it goes like last year I hope to make nearly three months income in the six weeks which helps to pay for the weeks when I have to take a break, after all no work, no pay..

It may be 35 days a year, but you are currently working a 6 day week... so it kind of evens out?
Just wanted to say, the last yarn bowl you've put up I have fallen madly in love with it! It's completely beautiful!
Do a little of something that makes you happy every day!
Yes quite pleased with it. H suggested painting the inside of each hole, so I got her to do it! and it has worked well I think.
Just had another look at the photo and actually you cant really see that each hole is painted in green, I actually thinks it looks better in real life than the photo.

Spoken to my bro and told him that I cant deal with him and the tribe coming so I will take my Dad up to his place on Boxing day. Would rather not do that either but I guess I had better show willing. It will mean that I will need to go and buy a load more presents so I have something to give to the kids as they will expect us bearing gifts and I sent their parents money for their presents instead...
I have also finished wrapping all my presents so far but now I am feeling terrible. I have that sick feeling back and that lead weight again.

Well done for managing things with your brother and hugs.gif "(bear)")
The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.
Hi Pen I know this is easier said than done, just try and pace yourself and don't overdo things.
