Half Term

I had a lovely half term with my parents, even though the weather wasn't great. We had a couple of days of pouring rain but also a couple of lovely days. It was nice to take Mum and Dad to places they had never been to before and to see some more of Dorset. We went to Lulworth Cove and walked over the clifftop to Durdle Door and saw some glorious views.We also went to Brownsea Island, which is a National Trust Island. It is a beautiful island, with woodland, beaches and wonderful views. There are no foxes on the island so the hens, ducks, geese and peacocks all roam free with no fear of predators. It is also where the first scout camps were held and they still go there now.The highlight was seeing a red squirrel on Brownsea Island, right at the end to the day when we had given up hope of spotting one!

Knitting

Not posted anything for ages but after many hours of work I have finally finished some outfits for my friend Lyn's new baby, Noah. I did hope to have them done before he was born but I am a few weeks late. Still hopefully they will still fit him! They are the first baby clothes I have made and to be honest I'm rather proud of myself :> I'm sure Noah will look gorgeous in them.
