Omletstock 2 - January 2010

Recommended Posts

OK folks, so far I just have A chickychickychick-ENN!! and Couperwife as confirmed overnighters and Snowy as a day visitor so if anybody else wants to come, please let me know.....sadly this will be last ever Omletstock at this address because me and my hubby are splitting up, which is very sad and I'm in a bit of a state at the moment, but it means I have to move on and will be moving back north to Huddersfield, and whatever house I end up in, it's going to be ickle!!! :(

Well I was very lucky that OH offered to drive me there and back, so I was able to accompany everyone and indulge in a little wine. :wink: Just got home after a wonderful afternoon and evening. Lovely to catch up up with everyone again, did some felting and made some earrings and made a wonderful pom pom for my 'special' hat :wink: I'm just sorry I had to leave so early. I left Omletina and Couperwife singing along to Meatloaf and AChickychickychickENN looking bemused in a MinnieMouse hat. Great fun ladies, hope to do it again some time very soon xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

We've had lots of fun today and I only burst into tears once, which was pretty good going and got lots of hugs!

 

We went to the Doc Marten factory shop which is only about 20 minutes away - here are some photos of Couperwife and A chick chick chickkeen trying on various Docs!

and here is a photo of 12 pairs of Doc shoes and boots which the 3 of us bought.....

and here's Ludwig, the very tolerant cat wearing the same hat (we had drunk two bottles of bubbly and made a good start on a box of white wine by this time!!)

Looks as though you had a great time.

 

Any chance of the pattern for Snowy's hat? :lol:

:shock: Now you're asking something! It was a make it up as you go pattern :lol: But I'll have a go at writing it down. It would probably look better in more subtle colours and with a smaller pompom on top. However since I showed it to the boys this morning they have been taking turns wearing it all day :eh::lol:

 

(I just need to recover a little more from my hangover :oops: )

I didn't know there was a Doc Marten factory shop nearby! I've only just bought some boots over the internet. Must find the factory shop :idea: . Looks like you've had a fun time :lol: .

 

Kate, if you head over to me some time in your car, I'll take you to the factory shop in Baby Landy, it's in Wollaston, south of Wellingborough!! We also have the Padders factory shop in Kettering! :wink:

 

We've been in Corby this morning and been sampling the delights of TK Maxx and Primark!!! :roll::wink:

More shopping!! You were lucky to get away with the DMs - I hope your OH has also been shopping again Chicky! :wink:

 

Phew - glad you think I'm a lightweight - I was just wondering if I'd made a total fool of myself but hopefully you all won't remember if you carried on after I left :lol:

 

Head is now feeling better - the dogs had a shortened walk but the icy wind sure cleared the cobwebs away 8)

 

I went out in my special hat - everyone I passed today was smiling - I can't think why :think:

 

I've just been admiring the earrings and felty bits I made. Just off to check how much is in my paypal account and browse for jewellery making kits; pompom makers and wool tops :oops:
