I'm really quite excited

Just had a look at the link and that sounds really good. It's nice to have something to look forward to.

Ooooh, I think I'd like it. It clashes with my monthly spinning guild meeting  but Cookie A. Thing is though - I'm not sure I can knit fast enough! Wonder how much knitting you have to do on the day.
Bet if I don't book it asap it will sell out as soon as word gets out on Rav

Nnoooooooooooooooo
I don't know what to do. I've already booked up 2 Debbie Abrahams workshops @ £40 each - they are for April and July (and fab - as I can walk there!!! Being held in my village )
I need to speak to OH. I mean - I don't need his permission or anything - just see what he reckons.

You do whatever is best for you Sharon. It would be lovely to see you there if you decide to do it, but of course when travelling is to be taken into account too it's another matter altogether isn't it.
I am emboldened by surviving the Lucy Neatby workshop with real knitters and as I learned a very great deal there I am hoping to do the same here.
The thing with workshops, as I see it, is we go there to learn something new or improve, not because we already know how to do it

Well, I've done it!!!!!!! OH wasn't much help with my decision. There were only 3 places showing 'in stock' so I thought - what the hell! I've just sent a friend a txt to see if she can come - although I think she'll have to be quick!
Oooooh I'm excited now. So - I really do feel I must knit one of her designs now (to wear on the day). Can I sit next to you??!!
I might get the train - we have a regular coach from Oxford but I'll have to get it at about 6.30am I reckon. Much cheaper than the train though.
I might have to have a lie down now. Honeslty - I'm SO excited!!!! Thanks for the heads-up. I would have missed it (if I'd been doing some work instead of surfing on here - oops)
