So I am making progress if a little slow in some areas, the next few weeks are going to be hard as I do love crisps. So if you want to help me achieve one of my targets or have a suggestion of where I could go to achieve it let me know! Leave me a comment, facebook me, tweet me or find me at work!
I addition this week I got red streaks in my hair as you can see from this photo.
Love the new hair, and the half a Bert. I have steam trains, horses and knitting if you are around at any point. And once you have been converted to being a knitter there are many lovely yarn shows, with sheep!
ReplyDeleteAlso for courses, you could try the Craftsy website if you can't find any nearby ones that you like
Get the steam train from Keighley to Haworth. It's my fave. You can do it all through the year.
ReplyDeleteIf you fancy listening to some punk/pop punk some of my favourite bands are bouncing souls, alkaline trio, mxpx, NOFX and new found glory.
