Wet and windy day


This is my holey moley insertion stitch sampler, not quite finished, there is paper across the last one and it is waiting for the inserted cretan stitch.
I have never felt the need to do insertion stitch before but Dale always likes to stretch us.
Probably not done terribly well but fun to do on a day like this.
There was a lovely sunset last night, taken from the balcony.
You cant see it but this lovely she oak was blowing well in the wind, they sigh in even a light breeze but today was not a gentle breeze.
We had a walk between wind and rain , not very long but enough to blow the cobwebs away and I rather liked this little bonsai'd tree on the limestone ledge by the channel.
The fellows have come in to a warm fire, they must be frozen, it was cold here, but also wet and for all their trouble we will have a crab each, but not the tiny salmon trout and tommy ruff filet, but we have squid for dinner tonight.
I have been relaxing today, I am beginning to enjoy it.
