IT'S THE FIFTH SO DOLL PHOTO DAY

 April ! Yes it's already the fourth month of 2025 ! The sun's shinning , so is it going to be a warm and sunny year? Only time will tell, so what we do know is that it is doll photo day, so lets get started.


From Gill we have Holly and her sister on the laptop. I wonder what they are up to ?

Emailing a friend, checking out what's on offer at A Passion for Sasha ? or scrolling the internet? 

I just hope Gill's hidden her bank cards !



Over at RoRoPo , Otto and Gregor, are floating ! Floating on a rainbow cloud of softness across the garden


"This is the life !" sighs Gregor " Yes " replies Otto " Drifting across the grass of our rainbow boat " then


"WOOF" boing ! Gregor and Otto bounce up as a small puppy jumps onto their rainbow cloud of fluffiness ! 

" Okay okay Anamcara ! " giggles Otto " we know it's really your dog bed but come and join us floating 

Anamcara doesn't understand a word he's saying but he gives good belly rubs, so she climbs on and snuggles up.


Over the pond in Gregoropolis, Dan Ryan and Christian are wondering what on earth is going ! on while looking like two handsome sweater models. Although they are a little worried if they'll be able to ever buy any clothes again any time soon !  They are trusting one of the adults will get a handle on it all and save the country !

Here in the village, Tommy Rotten is telling little Jonny that he doesn't need to go to school!

" So " questions Jonny " I don't need any education because the teachers are trying to control my thoughts? "

" Exactly Jonny " Tommy agrees " They will just indoctrinate you into their beliefs and prejudices "


"Well I'm never going to school again " says Jonny

" Great!" grins Tommy " My work here is done " then he is off to cause more mischief ! 


Many thanks for all those sending in photos, still time to have yours added

APRIL AND A BOX OF HATS

So April's arrived and the sun is still shinning! According to the weather people it's also going to continue shinning all weekend and into and all of next week ! 

I have known it snow yes snow, in April, admittedly many many year ago, back when I had a waist! So I've not made any outdoor plans yet.

Since it's April, it's almost time for those wonderful doll photo day photos, so please send them in for the fifth.

Well I hit my deadline of making a hat from every mini skein by the end of March and so knitting was to be put aside for a couple of months. Mm however it appears every time I sit down, I automatically pick up the bag of leftovers and my needles, find a couple of balls that will work well together and the next thing I'm clickity clacking away ! So it looks like I'll have to knit up the leftovers before I stop !

I did however find a bigger box to store the made hats in, with some room for more! Mind you where I'm going to find space to keep such a large box for months I don't know.



Lots of colourful hats


Lots of different colours and patterns.


A box of hats !!
