So Mum and Dad came over driving a HUGE van with all my things inside. They arrived Friday evening, Saturday morning we were putting together furniture and finding new and interesting ways to injure ourselves, and then we went into Galway hunting out oysters and Guinness for Dad and a look around the city and the cathedral, followed by fish and chips that night. Then they had to depart nice and early on Sunday leaving me to gloat over what they’d brought me. I’ve mostly been unpacking and arranging over the week since they left, but we did visit a wool shop and I’ve been knitting a pair of socks with the option to phone a friend whenever my rusty knitting skills weren’t quite up to the job (thanks Mum ;-)). It’s taken me a while, but I’ve finally finished the first sock!

I feel so proud 😀
