Where did October go?

Well, we did go to France for a couple of week's to cover my slightly significant birthday. I then nipped down to London again as Eirka's Obaachan was over from Japan, and we took what is hopefully a historical photo of her with her two grannies. It's only the second time Yoko and I have met. Erika now has her own passport and should be meeting the rest of her Japanese family in the new year. Finished sheep carousel tea cosy. Wonderful pattern November - Knitting History Forum, so down to London again, and this time tea in Fortnum & Mason with Erika. I gave a paper on the search for Eric Pasold's Frame - his interpretaion of what William Lee would actually have built in 1589, minus all the later additions. Think it went down well, ended on a laugh. The Science Museum can't find the darn thing, only the pix, so have put an "electronic note" on the record to alert me if it ever does coem to light. I am fairly sure they have photopgrapghed it upside down, it would never work in that position.
