off sick...

I've returned from my jaunt to the south coast with a rotten cold. J is also off school with the very same. He's been sleeping it off whilst I've been watching rubbish day time tv in bed and doing five minute bursts of friendship bracelet making.

The top and bottom ones here are my handiwork. Not a very clear pic (borrowed from E's Instagrammed archives). They are the rope type, made on a simple circular loom sort of thing. Very satisfying and much easier to make than the traditional woven/macrame style which require good eyesight and longer concentration than I've had this week.

I managed to stay awake for a whole Hitchcock thriller only to find that the ending wasn't very thrilling at all. Thank goodness for Westerns I say!
