Dear people who will read this thread,

Hello, how are you? I am doing well. I had a wonderful day in the sunshine today before retiring to the computer and endless sewing pile. Thought I'd finally pop over to say hello to this board since I do alot of mooching and not so much chatting.
My spinning is coming along... slowly... very slowly but after all this time like anyone who studies anything, don't feel I'm as good as I should be and never find enough time in a day to get as good as I want.
I'm a Canadian wanna be English and regularly fill my belly with chip peas and egg and enjoy a good cuppa. When I'm not yelling at people to pay their bills or having them yell at me during my day time job I sew and yell at our resident dog (no not my bf), enjoy a few toons, mooch about with my man and if any time is left over I come on the net and ramble ridiculous posts like this one.
Hope all is well in poipoi land,
Cheers.

Hi Flail and welcome.

I have family who live in Canada. Wish I could justify moving over there. It's such a beautiful country. What part are you from?

Looks like poi brings out strange similarities in people. Belive it or not, on a different poi forum, there is a member with a name very siimlar to 'Flair', who is very much into sewing, has a b/f and a dog. What a small world, don't you think?
That 'Flair' also knows someone called Rusty too.

Queue theme tune from 'Tales Of The Unexpected'.....

Very Happy
