I totally agree with all of the above.....as always a totally cheery experience!!
No one ever mentions that your photography is outstanding, what camera do you use?
My crochet pics never come out as zingy as yours, so I'm blaming my little digi camera!

What a glorious day it is and all your beautiful pictures and ideas have made me very excited about the weekend.
I have the gin, and the elderflower cordial and in three and a half hours I will have a weekend! No doubt after such lovely Friday weather it will decide to be cloudy and rain, but we can but hope!
(And there's only a week to go until the Country Living Spring Fair - hooray!)
