I can label and sort them, and mark articles I like (so I don't have to keep searching back through hundreds of posts to find that particular knitting pattern I know I saw somewhere). Definitely worth signing up to one or the other if you read a lot of blogs (its very addictive).Crafty Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16843989607927393076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7944832373177259228.post-57044280266663594452007-07-11T04:45:00.000+01:002007-07-11T04:45:00.000+01:00your blog is so charming I have really enjoyed c...your blog is so charming I have really enjoyed catching up with it today the photos are wonderful!and so are the monkees of courseAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7944832373177259228.post-88139693768074865812007-07-10T20:35:00.000+01:002007-07-10T20:35:00.000+01:00I've never tried one of those Gu things.

By the way, on the subject of not being funny often, my sister was puzzled when I rang her a few weeks ago just to tell her that someone had thought I was funny on my blog - well it was a really big deal as far as I was concerned, one of those once every decade events, but she clearly didn't think it warranted a phone call!Locket Pockethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16689704503844595835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7944832373177259228.post-23798675856017669822007-07-10T17:47:00.000+01:002007-07-10T17:47:00.000+01:00Glad to see there are fellow dessert aficionados o...Glad to see there are fellow dessert aficionados out there!<BR/><BR/>A few things :- "pudding padding" - isn't that what I've got on my hips?<BR/><BR/>I am indeed a frazzle fancier but the ultimate bacon snack has to be Smiths Bacon Flavour Fries.

It seems to taste even better when you haven't paid an arm and a leg for it.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your words of good luck on the matter of my secret monkey. At the moment it looks a lot like an aubergine (only less purple), which I think is a good thing. And yes, t'Other Half did indeed come to the wool shop with me - and even carried the wool some of the way home! The fool. <BR/>VC xAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
