  Any suggestions on a good knitting pattern for a super variegated sock yarn??? I need to knit my sister a pair of socks for her birthday in November, and the yarn is very loud and variegated.

  In the ODT this morning is an article about Dunedin being rated as a hot spot for slips. Of course it's behind a paywall, so if you want to know where they are: Aramoana, Brighton, Kaikorai, Leith, Otago Peninsula, South Dunedin, West Harbour, Ōtākou-Harington Point and Harwood.

  Dunedin is now in a red warning for rain for the next day. Please send all your wishes for it to turn into snow rather than rain. Snow will melt slowly, but that much rain may cause flooding in low lying areas.

  If you want to know how my parents morning is going, the north wester has kicked in, and the next door neighbours roof lifted off and landed in mum and dad's back yard.

  Breast Screening Aotearoa sent me a text saying I was overdue for screening. My appointment was supposed to be yesterday but they cancelled it. And now it feels like they're grumping at me. Sigh...

  Hubby and I watched the final episode of Supernatural at lunch time. 15 seasons of Sam and Dean, and the family business. And I'm happy that hubby agreed with me, that the second to last episode should've been the last. It was my second rewatch of Supernatural, and hubby's first watch. #supernatural

  Ugh, all I need to do is do the thread chains and then hubby's cloak is finished. I just don't wanna do it 😩 I just need a needle and thread and watch the video tutorial a few times...

  I finished hubby's cloak last night :partyparrot: I need to take some photos of both of ours now, and then they go into storage until our nephews wedding next month.

  Brr she's a cold one this morning 🥶 The frost is super crunchy out there. As a bonus it means our solar system will be pumping out electrons today.

  So that Hanta Virus Cruise Ship situation is looking worse by the day... It's the Andes strain of the virus, which is the one that can transmit between people, and it has an 8 week incubation time. The current plan is to get everyone off the ship at the Canary Islands, and then send everyone back home to their countries 🤔

  I hate having to use Spotlights website so much. It's all okay until I'm trying to check out and then it rejects my address that it itself chooses. Sometimes it works and then other times it just refused. Multiple browsers have this problem 😬

  My chickpea plants are remarkably frost tolerant. They've survived 3 frosts so far, with one down to -1.7˚C. The plants are healthy, and they're still flowering and producing chickpea pods. They're up to my hip now.
