I like spinach and the thought of an easy-care equivalent is appealing. <br />By the way, would it help to carry something like a tube of honey or a candy bar with you, in case of a future low-sugar crisis? I think I've heard of such things.=Tamarnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-17385447100008061862014-04-13T18:46:31.522+01:002014-04-13T18:46:31.522+01:00Glad you got to go to "The Center of the Univ...Glad you got to go to "The Center of the Universe."

Just wanted to let you know that you have contributed to my "world" knowledge albeit later rather than sooner. I have been reading your blog for a few years now and realized while you were on hiatus how little I know about Scotland other than the small bits you learn in a world history survey class. So I got busy and read some about Loch Fyne, Strathardle and Unst while you were gone. Most entertaining. Thank you for dropping those breadcrumbs over the years.Suenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-37920062137470090532014-04-13T13:27:49.028+01:002014-04-13T13:27:49.028+01:00It is good to read that you are better today.

I'm sure that your family (and your readers!) will be relieved that you won't attempt Strathardle alone any more.Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18032713855365728892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-52750203088488209712014-04-13T09:47:15.737+01:002014-04-13T09:47:15.737+01:00To save a bit of Googling, my paper has it that Pr...To save a bit of Googling, my paper has it that Prince William met the New Zealand knitter who made the shawl presented to P George by the NZ government - and, yes, it was a Margaret Stove design. And he told her she may need to be knitting another, which many take to mean that there is another on the way, but since they have already let it be known that they want to have two children, doesn't necessarily mean anything of the sort.jeanfromcornwallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10062674591619616456noreply@blogger.com
