Carding Skyline in the sunshine

What a lovely afternoon... Still a bit chilly, but beautiful sunshine.


I decided to stay on the carder and get together some more Skyline, Merino batts.

Morning World!

Nice to be back properly today... Got a tonne of carding to do this morning (and yes, I do mean a tonne in weight... Well ok not quite, but you get the picture!)

Still can't seem to post pictures from my iphone to my blog, which is a bit annoying (my iphone has kinda become my main tool for recording work)... I'm wondering if it's the connection speed? Maybe it's part of the same problem I have been having... Hmmm, need to investigate!

Trouble uploading photos from your iPhone?

I'm using blogpress and the flickr app, but everything I add a picture too won't post... Any ideas why it's stopped working?

Ta da... A connection!

Ok, so it's been a looonnnggg two weeks trying daily to get online here at HQ, then travelling 34 miles round trip to a family member's house, so that I can get a reliable connection to answer emails and print orders. Shhheeesssshhhh, I'm shattered!

But today I have set up a new landline connection and wow, it's super fast... Which is fab, as I have quiet a bit to do!

Apologies for being away for so long, but now I'm back and I have a lot to catch you up on... I'll do my best to update as regularly as I can over the next few weeks, as well as working my way through all of the comments you've left for me.

Connection dead....

'Hello, can you hear me?'
'Hello? Is anyone there?'
...
Connection goes dead.
'Oh, bugger!' She says trying quickly to think what to do...

Days later, I'm still without an Internet connection, or phone line (only mobile) and am having to travel to get my orders printed... So I'm sorry I've not been around to update here, or get through all my blog comments or drop by your blogs and say hi. I will be back as soon as I can. In the meantime on my website at www.sarastexturecrafts.com and take a look at the blog there. I will update there by phone as I wash fleeces and play with fibre.
