Mostly sewing

Muffins! Mike made fresh muffins! Lovely as it has been to have the Aga back in order to toast the ones that have been in the freezer for several months, I do have to say: muffins!

Today, I have mostly been sewing (cushions to match latest quilt), with occasional weaving (nothing exciting, I just picked up my hand loom a little while back when watching a film, and find myself keeping doing so) and attempting to explain VAT rules on which I myself am a little shaky* to someone who cares deeply but knows nothing about VAT.

* On the plus side for my ego, minus side for Getting Things Done, when I phoned HMRC the chap said "Oooh, I dunno..." as well.

(I would post a picture, but I still need to do a bit of hand finishing of the cushions, and anyway I can't face wrangling with Scrapbook, which I suspect is Still Broken for the iPhone app.)

It rained. Then it stopped. Then it started again. Then the sun came out. Then it stopped for a bit. Then the sun came back out. Then it rained. One of those days, although it was quite nice when the sun was out. One of those dog walks, in fact: if I *hadn't* gone out in my long coat, it totally would have persisted down. It's almost like I was doing a public service is getting over-heated!
