Not up early here. I helped a friend move yesterday (along with a few other
people) and I
must admit I'm just getting too old to do that anymore. I'm SO exhausted,
and I
wanted to get so much done out in the garden today. I'm running out of time
to plant seeds,
so must finish up this week.
I'm still working on a Clapotis scarf from Fleece Artist Blue Face
Leicester, and I love it.
I think it's going to be fabulous when it's all blocked and ready to wear
(not that I'm rushing
into winter - not at all).
Other project is still the felted Stained Glass Bag. I'm on the home
stretch with it and will
be doing another one in brighter colours when I'm finished this one.
Ken & I will be off to British Columbia for a short fishing vacation next
week and we're
very much looking forward to that. With gasoline prices the way they are,
this may be our
last driving vacation. We're paying the equivalent of $4.91/U.S. gallon
right now. Gasp!
I hope everyone's having a good weekend.
Shelagh

That's cheap Shelagh! See article at: http://tinyurl.com/4qonpz
<quote> As oil prices reached an all-time high, experts forecast the cost
of petrol could hit an average of £1.21 per litre within months. <end
quote>. Today we paid £1.19 to fill our tank.
There are approx 2 Canadian or American Dollars to each British Pound at
the moment and 1 gallon is equivalent to 4.54 litres. The cost per litre
was is £1.19.
So, £1.21 (cost per litre) x 4.54 (number of litres in a gallon) =
£5.49 (cost per gallon in the UK) x 2 (as £1 sterling exchanges to $2 at
present) = $10.98 per gallon over here. :-(
Apart from all that, have a lovely holiday. :-)

Bernadette. . .
I had heard recently that to fill a semi (tractor trailor) with diesel in the
UK, it was
now well over $2000.00 in US dollars!! I believe, if memory serves, the last
report I
heard about diesel prices HERE were costing our truckers between $800 and $1400
per
fill..... it's terrible, it's worldwide, and solutions seem to be non-existant!
Hugs,
Noreen
