Sorry for the radio silence. We're transferring to a new ISP and despite the fact that we were paid up until the end of June, our incompetent old ISP cut us off early so we've been totally without email and internet access since last Thursday. But it gets even better, we found out today that they managed to cut us off so completely that it will be another week and an extra £50 before the new ISP can get us reconnected. We're not best pleased as you can probably imagine. Don't use BE Internet, that's my advice.

Fortunately my partner has just managed to cobble together dial-up access but it's slow and frustrating. So while I plan to do a couple of posts this week, I warn you now that it's likely to be all text.

I've actually quite enjoyed having a bit of an internet break. The weather has been lovely, so I've been out in the garden a lot and I've been catching up on my reading. Although I'm cross that we've been jerked around, another week without blogs, Ravelry and endless noodling around online doesn't sound too bad.
