I don't remember seeing you there but we all had a laugh when the Chancellor sat on a very, very wobbly legged suitcase.............we did hear someone gufffawing behind the Vintage Velvet Curtain (which had my beady eye on the WHOLE ceremony and concocted all sorts of wonders to make out of it....).<br /><br />Anyway your makes and embellished bottom all look jolly fine to me.<br /><br />As I am here could I please offer you a possibly slightly cock-eyed horse thing (as seen on my last blog posting) - as it will only sit in the drawer of: 'Makes with no home of their own' Drawer. If agreeable could you please send me your address and I will trot it in the post by way of thanks for the laughs over the years.<br /><br />Best wishes<br />Fellow GraduateThe Custardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17632655608950737315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7745195995993495629.post-20048266583871643222014-04-20T08:21:06.782+01:002014-04-20T08:21:06.782+01:00I like the table, just the job for storing the cur...I like the table, just the job for storing the current crochet or knitting project.
