Le Tour de Fleece: Day Four
Team time trial day today. I haven’t really replicated that in my spinning! Although I did go to spinning group yesterday, and am going again tomorrow so that counts for my team spinning in person, and I have been contributing a bit to the teams I am a member of on Ravelry as well. I am finding it jolly hard to keep up with all the posting on the ravelry group!
We have been having some bizarre weather today. Real monsoon stuff this afternoon. At least it means I don’t have to water my pots on the patio! I need to buy a new hose head before the weather dries out again. The current one has cracked, and every time I try and water the plants I end up watering my leg. Due to the weather, we have an indoor progress shot today.
Surprisingly enough there was enough light in the lounge to take this. The weather having prevented outdoor photography. My second favourite photographing spot is by the back door but we seem to have an unexplained wet carpet there after this afternoon’s rain, so the carpet is up to try and dry the floor, and also so we can hopefully work out how the water is getting in. It is all a bit of a mystery since the door itself and all of its edges seem to be dry.
I thought I would attempt a scale shot showing a 1p piece (aplogies that the penny is a bit grubby, it was the best I could find). This is partially to distract from the fact that despite having spun for a couple of hours today the bobbin looks jolly similar to yesterday. I am making progress, it is just rather slow.
