          I was looking around the local plant market we have in the town centre every Saturday (A local nursery), I saw a lovely white agapanthus, price £15, couldn't believe it:mad: I can get one for £7.

              Well I don't mind telling you all I'm Kn@ckered ...Alarms be it house alarms,car alarms :gaah: ..Last night there was one going off ..on and off till 3am...which to add insult to injury it also must have set a dog off barking and it wouldn't give up...Does anyone actually take any notice of alarms going off these days ? I've got past it myself unless it's my immediate neighbours...they're a sodding nuisance..Grrrrrr..

                @lolimac We have alarms going off occasionally but the owners of these cars are usually home and turn them off fast! Lucky here :phew: I'd want to go over and put the car out of it's misery :catapult: if that went on and on as you have had happen.

                My current frustration is trying to find a pattern for a sleeveless top that doesn't have giant armholes. I swear the pattern makers think everyone wants so much pit area showing that it looks like a wife beater top. Trying to figure out how to adjust the pattern seems fruitless too as all the videos and articles talk mostly about tops with sleeves :doh:

                  Why don't you try a pattern with sleeves then just omit them @CanadianLori ?

                        The patterns with sleeves have large openings to accommodate arm movement. I think I'm just going to have to draft my own. I've got a princess line dress pattern that I think I can use as a base and adjust that. So irritating! I want to make a twinset as I have some lovely fabric coming into a warehouse in the states where my gal pal and I will go to pick up in a few weeks.

                        Thanks for thinking on this for me :)

                              After some delay waiting on delivery... it's a mucky job in amongst the gears but all back together and working :) Definitely cheaper than sending off!

                                My moan for today....(I'm turning into Victor Meldrew)

                                I don't think it's bloody necessary whilst people are using strimmers to keep constantly revving it up like they're riding a dodgy moped.:gaah:

                                :phew: Glad I got that out my system..:biggrin:
