You can never have enough...

If he lasts that long. Rumours in the Nat community suggest he is not popular. I of course take no pleasure in that. None at all at all...

And I'm sure we all believe you...

morning ladies   It's cold here too, I suspect we've had a frost.

Congratulations on 47 years, roma   Those years do go by quickly!  And thank you for your kind comment about the hardanger.

I read (Stuff probably) about women leaving abusive relationships and MSD refusing them emergency housing saying they bought 'homelessness on themselves'.  Disgusting attitude.  When Luxton was asked about it, he said that's not true.  Everyone who needs it, is entitled to it.  But MSD have been instructed to tighten the criteria.  It was only when Hipkins asked him about it that he had the MSD Minister look into it and yes, that was right.  Now they are going to 'fix' it.  This was even when the woman was with an advocate from Women's Refuge or another charity.  They were even challenged for not reporting it to the police.  Not all women have the strength to do that.  This government needs a boot out the door at election time.  If we can't look after the vulnerable, then that says a lot about them and us.

This morning, I plan to shuffle some of MrK's  outside stuff against the west side of the house to the back yard so he can decide what he wants to do with it.  It will make it easier for him (and me) to get right round the house with no trip hazards.  He has made some amazing trellis type frames for the tomatoes etc and he has asked I find a spot closer to the garden for them.  Makes sense to me.  And then when the guys come from the Men's Club to take away the timber he no longer wants, it will be easier for them too.

The sea horse is going to be a slow project; I'm using my other-in-law's thread (she died in 2000) and it seems a lot skinnier than other brands.  It could be because it is from the 1990s, fitting seeing as the beads are from that era.  Or it could be I have become used to using a thicker thread and bigger needle over the last three projects.  A number nine needle is smaller than a crewel needle lol.  My fingers feel fat lol.

Time to put the washing on and make the most of the sunshine.

Miserable sods - reminds me of an old joke:
"How do you tell when a politician is lying?"
"When their lips are moving."
