Grr, my computer is on the fritz today, and it's driving me mad. My POP mail won't talk to gmail and my ICQ has given up the ghost.
But all the chocolate has been raised out of reach of a certain fuzzy chocaholic.

All is being prepared for the big exhibition weekend. My knits are all packed up, tomorrow is setting up day. I'll be there for the opening tomorrow night, then I'll be back on Sunday afternoon with my knitting.

I hope. The tea cosy plans have gone awry. It's just not working out the way it looks in my head. I was most of the way to finished, then I realised that it just wasn't right. I have 6 days to work it out. (Enter panic mode!)
Em and I went up yesterday to hand in my entries for the Campbelltown Show. There were two lovely older ladies on the desk accepting the entries, and they gave me a funny look when I handed in my form. I thought I was being paranoid, but after we left I checked with Em and she confirmed that they definitely looked at me askance.
It's not just young people who assume knitting is the province of little old ladies!!

All that's on the needles right now is the tea cosy bits, the Mother's Day socks and Faina.
Well, actually, Faina is in time out. I'm not feeling the Faina lurve. And I don't think I'm alone. I'll have to recheck the other knitalongers, but I'm feeling like Faina looks good in the pattern, but the knit doesn't live up to expectation.
Or it could just be me. It's wider and shorter than I would've liked. No new pictures, because it looks much the same as it did last time I showed it.
Except that it's now on a stitch holder, because I wanted the needle for the bath sets.
Not sure whats going to happen with yet. I have a very strong feeling that even if I forge on and finish it, I'll never wear it. And life's too short to waste on unloved knits, isn't it?

Anyway, I'm sure I'll have something on the needles.
And getting back on topic, I'll be at the exhibition on Sunday afternoon. There'll be lots of other people in and out all weekend, includng Ailsa, Sharon, Donni, Annie and Tianne, and many other lovely blogless knitters.
Come up, say hello! Don't be shy, we don't bite, I promise.
If anyone wants to come along, but is feeling shy, feel free to email me and I'll send you my mobile number, and you can call and check in before you arrive!

And just because I hate uploading posts without pictures, here's a really bad picture off my phone of some galah's that I saw on my walk last weekend.

Another Australian native bird. Another *noisy* Australian native! They can be kept as pets, and can be taught to talk, but there are plenty of wild ones about to see. I'll try to get a better picture next time.

On, and it was my blogiversary last week, three years! How much time have I wasted on here?!?
