morning ladies There's a chill in the air, winter must be on its way.

Our nieghbour's dog has been for her daily visit and cuddle

I agree, other's should be told about residents passing away, popeye but I suspect it is all to do with privacy and leaving the family to tell others. I love the dress too. As for shortening the hem, you may have to just bite the bullet and hem it which would mean cutting *gulp*. You could not have the frill, although that is why you bought the dress. Then jazz the dress up with belts and/or scarves. I'm sure others will have better ideas.

There must be a lot of people having today off as the road is quieter this morning. I'm wondering if they do put those barriers in (and I suspect they have made up their minds to do it) if it will put people off using SH29. We have noticed lots of impatient drivers over the last couple of weeks.

Happy crafting
