Now dont laugh,but I was molested by an amourous turkey! He decided that I must have been a female Norfolk Black (ok so I WAS a Goth at the time) and did his little display for me.

Have found a china spaniel and marbles too,and the usual blue and white pottery (why is it always blue and white??) The best thing we found,alt...

Thanks Ina but I think that doubled double knitting wool might be a little warm for the Summer! I was thinking of trying to knit two rectangles for the front and back and two for the sleeves as all the patterns Ive found seem to be too fitted and Im thinking more on the lines of a sloppy joe! Thanks...
