    That's great news. I have been making a shawl for my mum and had it all but finished, but I wasn't happy with it. I ripped it all back and started again last week. I'm almost there again now. I hope I haven't made as many mistakes this time.

    How can you kill cakes?
    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.

    He dropped one on the floor and for some reason known only to him, he doused one with brandy and put it on a plate. Aforementioned cake stuck to plate and transfering it to brown paper to store was a failure of epic proportions!!!

    My nieces were both home from England this weekend. They decided that they would have a couple of drinks at home before heading into Galway. They 'borrowed' a bottle of gin from my dad's house before setting off. When they opened the bottle they only discovered that it wasn't gin when they drank the first of their drinks for the night. It was poteen (an Irish alcoholic drink made from fermented potatoes), and is absolutely disgusting. It numbs your mouth when you drink it. Horrible!!!! But the girls had a great laugh about it today even though they both had hangovers. They are great and it's lovely that they get to see one another once every 4 weeks or so. It's almost like the old days when they used to call to me and help me do the house work before we'd go to the cinema or shopping or something.
