The sync appears to be out on my sewing machine. At least, speaking to the sewing shop that was thier diagnosis. I'll have a look at it tonight, and take it in to them tomorrow if I can't resolve it. I hope they can fix it, because it's a good little machine and it's done me well. It is about 5 years old, I guess, I don't kow what they life expectency of a sewing machine is these days. I don't really want to have to replace it because I'm special and tend to form bonds with inaminate objects. I don't think I'll be letting people use it unattended, whatever happens.

Spent the day feeling angry at nothing, and with a sick sense of something dreadful happening. Nothng has happened yet, but if you're out there, let me know you are all okay. I know some people have been through or are going through real hell (real problems, not "oh no, somethng that's probably easily fixed has broken") and I'm thinking of you.

Finally, spent a lovely satuday shopping with Joe, James and Cat in Bristol. Had lunch in walkabout - springbok burger is nice, kangaroo is better. Bought fabric for Rozy, Ivy and expo costume for Joe. Failed at finding Sora fur. Joe bought be wonderful aniversary present: it's a trillobite set in a pendant and it's 550 million years old. I love it.

All ok hear :D

I see no reason why a half decent sewing machine shouldn't last at least 10+ years or longer (certainly my mums has), assuming he/she/it has been regularly oiled and not too badly abused with really thick leatherette etc.

I know my mum's machine must be ten years or more, but then, my grandmother's wahing machine lasted 20 years and you don't get ones that do that these days! I know I've not abused it too much, other than verbally sometimes :)

Just dropping in to say "hullo!" and I hope you had a lot of fun shopping! Your pendant sounds awesome!
Don't know if I'm part of the people you mentioned, but I'm trotting along slowly and just about coping!

Apologies for any actions of mine that may have contributed to unsync-ed sewing machine.

I hope it gets better, it's a good machine.

Well, it worked fine up until the week before Minami, and since then the jamming has got worse and worse. We'll see, though I'll be really upset if it does need replacing. I make attachments to inanimate objects.

Went home ill but that's about it from my side. I only really mention it because if you sent me an email at work that's why I didn't reply.

And it was definitely a Reebok sandwich.

All seems fine here too :-)

Glad you had a good day shopping, etc. Sorry I couldn't join you. Going home was far too appealing ... !

PS, pendant sounds lovely.
