    Oh and by the way ... 2 sleeps to go!! If Barbara is celebrating her birthday this weekend, we could join forces and have an early celebration of my 65th (aaaahhh!!) which is on Star Wars Day.....

    A REALLY interesting thing! My mum has just told me that she was stationed at the American Museum during the war!! Apparently back then it was the Headquarters of the RAF Barrage Balloon Command. She was attached to them as a WAAF! I've been instructed to take lots of photos!!

    OMG do we have to dress up? I was only taking casual clothes. Should I get my tiara out of the safe?

    Tiara, Crown Jewels, everything you've got, I should say.

    And don't forget a change of ballgowns for the evening...

    My ballgown is cunningly disguised as trousers and a top. A real style maker! I do have a frock (does anyone call them "frocks" anymore?). That might do but the fluffy slippers may be a mistake. Packing later, so decisions to be made then

    Posted on behalf of Fiona Dunbar:

    G'day everyone from Down Under! I am stitching whilst on holiday. One UFO finished. Another one on the go. About to have a traditional Aussie BBQ . Raining here in Melbourne. Have a lovely weekend girls and hope someone will show me a pic of the project in due course. Sister-in-law’s 40th birthday party tomorrow and it is fancy dress. Hubby and I are the Ugly Sisters! May not feel brave enough to post pics! Happy Stitching!!
    If I am going as an Ugly Sister maybe I don't need to dress up!!!!
