As I await my new spinning wheel I’ve been doing a stocktake and spending hours watching amazing knitters, spinners and fibre artists with enviable photography skills, on their own YouTube channel. It’s like stepping into another world. I’ve found a selection of podcasters from the northern hemisphere who not only share their skills and knowledge but also give a visual commentary on seasonal and current issues affecting them. I find it interesting seeing how they deal with COVID-19 restrictions where they live and an in-site into that country. They podcast from their house, show off their garden and surrounding countryside set to music. If they haven’t got a dog then there is a cat warm and cosy by the fire.
Paul and the kids have come down with winter sniffles and cold symptoms. The boys succumbed first and GP refered them for COVID swabs which both came back negative. The girls also followed suit. So school for them has been interupted for a week. We won’t know until tomorrow when they go back to school again. Trying times for everybody.
I shall be meeting up with the Tuesday Lunch Ladies tomorrow. Feeling like a return to normal.
