Hi All,

I'm packing too, have been soo busy, with  extra shifts at work, a mild case of chickenpox(yes, I had it 50 years ago) , Sick ones at work, no felting, apart from the workshop i attended as haven't had the extra energy. Ah well, that's all changing now. I'll have another car ( bought my son's Subaru :-) :-)  Now I have to pay for it.  I've just picked it up  :-) I've decided to drive, so that I can visit on the way back & fit in more stuff  :-D Any way, I'll be able to take my massage table with me, so look out ladies, I love doing massage ( I am a qualified massage therapist)

Rae, the finishing details on your scarf are still in my head, I just haven't had the extra energy to work on it on my time off, I'm sorry.  I hope to be invigorated  at the convergence. 

I haven't prepared Anything for the Convergence, so will have to be busy or just a watcher, there. I'm taking my camera with me, so hope to be able to take some pickies.  I'm a night-owl, thanks to years of night nursing. That's when I'll no-doubt be busy.

Pat are you taking any batts for sale at all [  :-X ] ( I love your samples, but haven't been able to do anything about working out my shopping list yet.)

Kerry, are you bringing any of your skeins? Are you coming by train or car? do you still have a Roberta for sale? 

Sandie, I'll catch up with you properly, this time. I hope to do a workshop with Birgitte too, as she is coming here at the end of October.  I have to check with  Lyn first, as I also have to change my roster, to do it.  I did one with Ewa Kuniczak, which was great. I've nearly finished the doll from the workshop. I should have done it by now, but unwellness prevailed :-(  

I'm staying on campus, to make the most of the time there, besides which, it's a great way to meet everyone, isn't it?
I believe they supply bed linen, but I guess if I want to ensure cotton sheets, I'd better take some.

Julie, sad that you can't come, but congratulations on the publication in Echoes.

I do agree with the others, that we should keep our group to Australasia (or maybe the Southern Hemisphere, as there are a few in South Africa & the Falkland Islands.)
regards, Barb.
