      It's past being a joke... :hate-shocked:Thank goodness we don't have a car! Now I wonder what happened to the old desk chair that surely was bang in the middle just a month ago :scratch:

      Anyways, the seeds have been sown with loving assistance of the Selleri family remotely in Skype. "Where will you put all those pots of chillies? Surely 5 or so would be enough? 2m tall? You are joking. (Live)Mum, I have labelled these but what's in this one? " :wallbanging: :biggrin:

            It's hubby's uncle funeral this morning but not going, there's a lot of people to attend but only up 30, so we're going to attend on Skype or what ever it is.
            Over a few years he had a few strokes which led to dementia,he got so bad that he had to go into a home but he got worse and couldn't eat at all, so that's what he died of, the home was very good but they didn't let any visiting because of this virus.

                      @DianneW ...I think you'll find that only you can delete your post, no other member can. You could pm a mod. And ask them to though .:dbgrtmb:

                          @DianneW Janome is a good name. You might find that there is a small slider at the back of the sewing bed which engages the feed dogs to move the fabric. The reason some machines have those is that for embroidering you don't want to fight the measured pace.

                          Janome used to be sold under the name Kenmore here and I have 4 of their machines of various vintages with zero problems.

                          @Snorky85 how's the puzzle going? I did get my 5 pieces done yesterday...:heehee:
