Morning all - cool and grey here, breezy too! OH and I have just painted the spare bedroom - base coat yesterday, magnolia today. I fear it may need a second coat but OH is very confident that it won't! We'll see. Anyway have a good day everyone.

Aaaaaaaaaaarternooooooon Peeps! Had a Horsey day, thoroughly enjoyable. Went to watch chum's Horse in the Dressage - very impressed - won first class, waiting to hear what happened in the other as we left before the end. Then went for natter/coffee and chores at stables. My old Boy not interested in talking to me, but went and had a cuddle with one of the other owners. OK, I can take a hint...

Prevening All.....
Today's gems;
Customer brandishing dress pattern "Excuse me, have you got another pattern exactly the same as this? I don't want to do it in the floral pattern they've used. I need a pattern for a plain dress"
Customer looking at the fun fur " How much do you think I need to make a teddy bear costume for a miniature pony?"
Guy holding a bale of fabric in a really loud print " Do you think this will suit my wife, I mean, do you think she'll like it?"
"I need to put a zip in a dress. What colour and size will I need?" Err....what's your fabric like? "I don't know, I haven't chosen it yet." What sort of pattern have you got? "I haven't chosen that yet either"
Give me strength or, possibly, brandy.
I'm so thankful it's Sunday tomorrow.Jules
Coffee. Garden. Coffee. Does a good morning need anything else?

Oh Jules I feel for you - my girls could never ever visualise knitting or sewing patterns made up in other colours or patterns.
Managed allotment this afternoon, with helpers in tow. Did some weeding and a bit of harvesting. The boys were finding caterpillars for me and putting them in a plastic bottle - they're now having a nice swim in salty water

Geef, you can do the shop on Monday then!
Rusty, the woman was convinced that she actually couldn't make that pattern up because the packet had a floral print dress in the photo on the front. I pointed out that the pattern was just tissue; it wouldn't know what fabric she had used, but she said 'No, you don't understand, this pattern is only for flowery fabrics' No, no, it really isn't honestly - but there was no persuading her and she couldn't accept that the same didn't come in a plain version.Last edited by julesapple; 17-08-2013, 06:29 PM.Jules
