Dreesing Up Like Old Stuff!

So today I went to Beeston, in Cheshire, to the 13th century castle there, and did some re-enactment with a group that a couple of old friends of mine are in :)

I didn't actually get to fight, because I was in a linen tunic and everyone else was wearing chainmail and plate armour. Owie.

But it was great fun, and I managed to get sunburn on my feet by walking about barefoot all day! Woo! Pictures may follow when I find some!

Tada-Continued!

  
Ok, so I did leave the house and go for coffee with familypeeps, then I returned with a head cold and did some new tablet weave.
Tablet weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeave! See above my homemade and very flimsy set of cards and shuttle, they work...usually :p

(Apologies for photo quality, I've lost my camera charger which = no photo uploads or pictures until next week. Boo!)

Tada!


See? All finished! I haven't done much today, haven't even left the house yet, but will do soon! I've been trying to organise my academic future actually, there are far too many universities with far too few options. Why are my interests so odd!?


Ah well, we shall overcome, as we always do, eh chaps? ;-)

The day's craftiness

So I'm crocheting a hat. Cap. Toque. Yes, it is a toque! I was taught to crochet last month by a certain lady and I haven't finished it yet, but it now goes over my ears (just about) and soon it'll be ready! :D The wool is really cool, a sort of three shades of blue in one!

Today I have been trying to find a post graduate degree that suits me. I've looked all over the world, and it's so difficult! I never wanted to specialise, and now I think I do...oh brain, you so unmanageable!

Go Tuesday!

Well, today was a lazy sort of day, but I did realise that I have no way of getting pictures off my camera until tomorrow, which is heavy as I have reams of the little darlings to put around the internet and stick in albums and things like that.

And. I learnt how to tablet weave again. It's fun and super addictive once you get into it! Google it until I pop some pictures and links up, such a simple technique that looks dead nice. Yes!

And that was Tuesday. :)

Behold! A blog!

I have a blog now. Look, here it is. It was decided that I do enough stuff to warrant a web log in order that my many happenings, comings, goings, toings, froings and things might be followed by interested parties.

In short. You can keep track of me now.

So I'm going to pop up some photos and things to let anyone who's interested know what I'm up to when I remember. Mwynhewch! (It's Welsh for enjoy)
