Belated Christmas and New Year greetings. First my embroidery machine had a hiccup. I had a great day embroidering and then spent a number of days on the phone on and off to my great machine blokes. They were as useful and helpful as ever giving each stage of repair that was required to get up and running again. That solved my laptop went down...

The craft group I belong had our annual Christmas Craft Fair and I returned home to find the front room had been partially reorganised (minor panic from me as Christmas presents were being stored in there. They are still being found). Knowing asking questions doesn't get the answer required I didn't ask. The following day I was told the room was being redecorated before Christmas. The actual Christmas wasn't specified so I hope it will be 2019 as it certainly wasn't 2018. My son in law came to stay over the hols so he very kindly get me back on the www with his great efforts. The picture is of our remaining house guest Snow Angel who is a tiger rabbit. Owned by a friend who on purchase was told he had to live inside for the winter. He and cage have been in the half decorated front room with the odd hop about in the sitting room. Not sure if friend thought she would see her dear Snowy again as when he was left, 4 under 10's were chasing each other and visiting dog about (and the dog found it could let itself into the front room but not get out)
Right the saga of missing asterixsew ends with me wishing you all Happy and hassle free Embroidering in 2019.
