Lovely morning chit-chat thread- March 2025

Morning Ian, we've talked before, but it's good to hear from you again, it sounds good to me, I would say go for it, I don't bee keep myself, but have a couple of friends on the allotments who do and I've made them hives,"I was a carpenter," and it was a lovely little project, and I can imagine making your own traditional one would be very satisfying and enjoyable, we chat about everything on here, we try to keep it as much about day to day life as possible and welcoming, I'm also going to have a go at basket weaving, and who knows we may have hidden talents.

Good morning everyone,  welcome Ian.  I am definately not artistic and have zero patience with things arty.  My friend bought me a Wrendale paint by numbers of a rabbit for Christmas.  I have started this and found it relaxing.  It took me an hour to paint the ear and I had to use a magnifying glass as it is so detailed.  Will post a picture of finished art work  when done, which will probably be in a years time.

.  Have a great Sunday.

Sorry Ellie, forgot the pottery things from yesterday 

Alright I hate clever people lol, I can just about see my lap top, keeps you busy and gives you some thing to focus on.

Morning Patrick, and thanks for the link, hopefully I'll get to see it later today, though my arty friends have done some weaving too, but any advice is always welcome.

 P9 bees  Hi Ian! The community garden I'm involved with has bees thoughnim not involved with them other than to admire. They had a tough year going into winter and swarm so depleted they were moved into insulated hive. However they seem to have come through with lots of fondant as we've seen them venturing out on the warmer days. 

 eddiel you're so varied in your crafting! I only knit and crochet. Basket weaving does sound fun though.....

Tis morning, I slept and am feeling brighter again. Time to get up and start the day before travelling back to Tiki. Thanks for being here all x

Morning Lee2,  that sounds fab, and I look forward to seeing it, I've just posted a few things I've done, all on 2 hour courses with Friends, maybe it will encourage others to have a go.

Morning Lex,  knitting and crochet are beyond me, my crafting only started last year through my friends,though will try weaving, give Tiki a stroke for me, and we're all here for each other my friend,

Morning Lex,  hope you have a safe trip home today and back to your beloved Tiki.
