End of March

 Here we are at the end of another month already.  It's been a busy March, last week was especially busy and I didn't have a lot of time to sit and knit, but I did finish another pair of socks earlier in the week for Mark.


These were knitted in Drops Fable Print yarn which has been in my stash for more years than I can remember.  I think I kept passing up on it because of the colour, but actually I think It knitted up just fine and the yarn was actually nicer to knit with than I anticipated.

These will go in my box of socks along with the others finished this year.

My daughter, Joanne has an addition to their family, this is Neville.


Isn't he adorable!  I do have a soft spot for black cats.

Bonnie and Jacob have wanted another pet ever since they lost Pickle, (Bonnies hamster), last year.

They both love animals and I know that Bonnie would love a dachshund, or sausage dog as we call them, she's talked about having one since she was a toddler, but with Joanne working full time it just wouldn't be fair, so they agreed on a cat.

They collected him on Saturday and he seems to have settled in really well, he loves to curl up by them and have a fuss, Jacob is very taken with him, I know Neville  will be very loved and spoilt.

The clocks went forward at the weekend here in the UK, I know I'm in the minority here, but I really don't like the lighter nights, I must have  SAD but in a different season because I prefer the darker nights.
Oh well only another seven months to go and It'll be dark nights again 😄

I don't like daylight saving either. The clocks only change in the south eastern states in Aus, not in the west where I live fortunately. They move back to normal time around April 5.

We had a lovely warm sunny day here, very unexpected, I do love the warmer months.

It's not the sunny bright days i dislike, it's the lighter nights.

Yeah, there is probably more of us that dislike lighter nights than people think
