Oh my goodness. I just watched this film tonight - I'm in bits. Hilarious, heartbreaking and thought provoking. Best film I've seen in years. Couldn't leave the cinema until it had emptied as mascara down my face!
Caught a preview of I Swear on Monday and I highly recommend it. Important subject matter, fantastic performances all round and very funny

The cleaning team at the campsite I frequently stay at are amazing, so I knitted this little lady to say thank you. Really enjoyable to rediscover Jean Greenhowes brilliant patterns. #bskyknit #showmeyourknits #knitting #knit #kindness #gratitude #knittingdesigner #knitter

I knit for pleasure soooo much I often end up with literally hundreds of softies. So I'm spending the day hiding these lovelies for people to find as random acts of knitting kindness. #bskyknit #showmeyourknits #knitting #knitter #knittingdesigner #kindness #raok

An entire sea cannot sink a ship unless the water gets inside of the ship. The same with the negativity of the world: it can’t bring you down unless you let it get inside of you. We cannot control what happens around us, but we can control our reaction to it. May your day be peaceful, my friends. 😊
