Cool. Crochet, loom knitting and anything creative is mine. :)

Although recently joined the Protect programme brain training study so I am also doing brain training most days :D

It's lovely!

It's hard not to get isolated sometimes especially when I'm afraid I'll cough my head off around others (and usually do). My animals entertain me and I read a lot. Trying to learn Chinese brush painting.

It is a bit like painting by numbers but using small resin crystals very relaxing and you get a lovely picture

I’ve just been looking at these online. I had never heard of it. It looks really interesting and I might give it a go, I’m always looking for new ideas of things to do to keep me occupied. Thanks 👍

I’ve ordered one of these. It won’t arrive before I go away but will be here by the time I return, by which time the longer nights will be back and I’m always glad of plenty of ideas for things to do.

I listen to good radio and make fudge, chocolates and general sweet treets....not for me!

I do sudoku and have taken to watching DVD's like game of thrones (excellent), the sopranos, lord of the rings and very funny ones too....great way to entertain yourself and time passes so quickly.

I collect post cards which I buy in lots at auction. I spend many happy hours looking at the pictures and reading the messages on the back. I must have over 40,000 by now.

I also play keyboards and sing.
