very deep forest would really go well with the blue ;)

Seeing as he was contacted by the retired electrician, we thought maybe he'd take longer getting back to us (not sure how he feels about some of the jobs the retired bloke sends his way ;))

yeah I've had deep emerald on her before. seems like he's a good chap though. I remember the last light issue.

speaking of outfits, I love the otter! That outfit looks really calm & serene :D

nods he definitely knows his stuff, and also wasn't fazed by having to go into the attic and lift the insulation, when we pointed out there was rat (and squirrel) poison up there, which has been buried beneath parts of the insulation ;)

Same for me.. quiet area with some nature- but still walking distance to the town. :D

I totally get that. London is a ton larger and much busier than Oslo tho. ;)

Going into town is a no go.. so I am just chillin. xD You?

You definitely get the best of both worlds that way :D

I'd not even want to be in the next city along laughs I had to go there for work a couple of times, and I got lost at the train station (we only have 2 platforms, and they have 15 :P o.O)

It is awesome indeed. :D

There is a long way to get to a bigger city than Stavanger (its the 4th largest in the country).. but quite small compared to other countries. :P 100-150K residents I believe?

according to wikipedia, where I live there's about 89k residents, but London is a lot lot bigger laughs

132 102 residents (per 1. april 2015) according to wikipedia. Not thata big of a difference then really. :)

why thank you :D I had fun making it XD your's is cute too lol looks like RP Paddy had a hard time finding clothing today :D probly seen it before too :D awww bummer

I still find it strange for the town to have that many residents - I can't picture that many people laughs

hehe I found the bg in the pawn shop, and couldn't resist ;) :D RP-Raven looks amazingly elegant today - that all works perfectly together :D

everything we said, he just replied "doesn't matter, I've seen worse" ;) Makes you dread to think some of the stuff he'd seen!

The doc did tell it it could take a a few weeks to get back into normal. :nods sagely:

Same here. I mostly notice in the summer, with tourists and everyone being into town for the annual food festival etc. xD

that must be a nightmare when there's festivals and stuff that really draws the people in - we don't tend to have much like that in the summer, but we do have a Christmas Market that brings in coaches of people in late November.... always a good time to avoid town! ;)

I've been busy sewing again - managed to make this top, although not quite in the hour the pattern claims! ;) It's about an inch shorter than it's meant to be (I had to move the waist up by an inch, and forgot to add it back on at the base :P)

lol yeah I wouldn't want to think about what he'd seen Thank you :D (keep reading) ooh like that shirt :D poor thing -huggles-

Went to a covered bridge today. It was so pretty. They had a dam made there with some gorgous waterfalls and scenery. was a hard walk in places but well worth it!

:D I'm still amazed the "thread loop" came out so well on the back - their instructions were pretty basic for that.... literally "make a thread loop" with a line drawing picture :P That sounds a really picturesque place! :D :D

I bet that lil inch there wont be noticable when you wear it.. it looks awesome! :D :D :D

I completed knitting that kitty pillow last night, so I just have to stuff and close it now. :D

Woah, that sounds stunning! :D Glad you had a good time dear. :hugs:

See above. lol

it's just about long enough to tuck into my trousers, but I think I'd wear it loose anyway :D

That's fantastic! I reckon that'll look amazing once it's stuffed :D :D

Not having it tucked it is more comfortable anyways. :)

Looks like you got a lot of new stuff to wear this summer. ^_^

nods that's true ;)

hehe even if some of the tops only last for a couple of wears, it's still fun making them :D

I am sure it will last longer than that. :nods:

If you want you can take a peek at something I have been playing with.. colourchart for my bagdispenser.. I think I might lose the cats.. and the colours are not set in stone.

hopefully - I didn't finish the inner edges of one top, so that'll fray in the wash.... but this last one has completely finished sides ;)

That looks awesome!! :D I love the way the back of the bag has the back of the cat :D :D
