1  Mr Smith had the bright idea that a fingerless glove might keep my arthritic wrist warm without restricting movement as the wrist splint does so I downloaded a pattern and knitted one this morning. Brilliant! It’s helping.

2 The Colourgirlz started work on the front door. Veronika worked so hard and already there is transformation – ugly wallpaper gone and  undercoats on front door and porch woodwork.

3  Deborah had an encounter with a turtle:

”  I had an amazing close encounter with an enormous sea turtle yesterday.  I was close, but at a respectful distance, and he swam over to where I was.  He blew bubbles for me and looked as if he wanted to climb into my lap.  He craned his head out of the water, getting as close as possible.  He felt so wise and ancient. I stayed with him for a long while, just communicating with him and loving him, what an incredible gift.  I attached a photo of him blowing bubbles!”
