PROUD AS A PEACOCK
I'm off to the PEACOCK Theatre tomorrow night with two of my children to see
LA VEILLEE DES ABYSSES.
"James Thierree, son of the gloriously eccentric Jean-Baptiste Thierree and Victoria Thierree Chaplin comes from a long tradition of music hall, variety and circus. His particular mix of visual trickery, acrobatics and clowning is both fantastical, unbelievable and extraordinary.
He is joined by opera singer Uma Ysamat, contortionist Raphalle Boitel, dancer Niklas Ek and capoeira dancer Thiago Martins, who together cook up a virtuoso dish of fantastic invention."

The show was originally at the Queen Elizabeth Hall, London in April 2004

PURSE EXCHANGE









One of the groups I belong to is doing a PURSE EXCHANGE.
Juliette is my partner and even tho' she moved house yesterday she managed to get this little woven number in the post to me. I feel sure that she picked the colours especially for me :-)

OUT OF THE DEAD WOOD SPRINGS THE GREEN
My neckpiece decided all by itself what it wanted to be just like the waistcoat I made a few months ago for a Challenge in the International Freeform Crochet group. If you don't know what FREEFORM CROCHET is - watch this space and I will attempt to educate and excite you.


LATEST CREATION
This is my latest "creation". I suppose it's a "neckpiece" 'cos it's not exactly a necklace. I had a piece of wispy felty rubbish left from making a freeform felted scarf and I was pulling around at it and it looked like something that would hang round the neck. I had some weird metallic yarn called DRAGONFLY so I grabbed it and a very small metal crochet hook and off I went.
Sorry - the pic is a bit fuzzy!
JUMPING IN AT THE DEEP END
Well here I go. Not sure if I've got what it takes to be a blogger but I'll give it a try. That probably tells you you the sort of person I am ... ooh .. this looks interesting .... I think I'll do that. Two days, two weeks or two years later I'll forget I've even seen or heard of it!!!

Must dash off to work but in the meantime I'll leave you with one of my half-finished webpage attempts www.angelfire.com/amiga2/fibracations
