An' I maun guide it cannie


Two garage sales last weekend yielded gold.

Five vintage Patons patterns - two for my collection, the rest for mates (20c each) , Alice Starmore's Knitting Patterns of the British Islands ($3 - best price on Abebooks $45 + postage from NZ!), a pear for TSS's collection ($1) and Two Fat Ladies Ride Again (20c).

Not a bad haul of $5.20.

Everytime I read about your exploits I get an overwhelming urge to go shopping with you.

Next time I visit I'll have to dog your every step to cash in on the great bargains that you're famous for.
