My first day blogging...

Not going to bombard with multiple posts each day, I promise, but decided to make another one today about what I've actually done!

Not a great deal is the answer, but enough all the same. 

Had a lovely little walk in to town today (love the fact that it's so close) to go to the haberdashery. I now have new knitting needles and some cotton that looks like wool to make a new scarf. I was indecisive about colour, so went for beige. I wear a lot of neutral shades, so it will go with a lot.
Already got over 2 inches knitted in a day, which is good for me! 

Spent the afternoon watching the Six Nations, these matches are a compulsory part of my routine! Wasn't overly pleased with the England result, as you can imagine. I'd washed my England top and painted my nails red and white specially! Wales did play well though, they've got an excellent team.

After burning Turkey curry to the bottom of the pan in a quick bid to make some dinner, I went out for the evening. I went to see 'Life and Times: Where the working boats went' which I have to say was marvellous! It's a production all about the life and times of canal men, told by two men, mostly through singing [some truly wonderful songs] and a bit of acting. 

I found out about the show through someone who I've known on Twitter for ages, but never met before, even though she lives about 20 mins away from me at Uni, it was lovely to finally meet her and she's big on the folk scene gigs in Shropshire, so she's inviting me to all sorts of other ventures, one of which is on Wednesday, which I'm very much looking forward to.

These people in the show tonight are looking for other places to play, and I think the home town would be great, as the town has a big canal heritage, going to talk to the vicar at my local church who's a good friend of mine, to see about putting it on there. Any Burtonians, watch this space!

Anyway, that was my lovely Saturday, which has been nice and chilled and the first non-stressful day since before Christmas! The Elder Basons (aka Parents) are coming tomorrow, so there will be tales to tell from tomorrow's ventures. Looking forward to seeing them since I haven't since January. Been tidying specially and got most of my washing done before hand. Hopefully they'll be proud!

Right, need to recharge batteries in time for tomorrow.

Sleep well all :)
