OK so I am now officially half way through my radiotherapy treatment. To be honest it's actually been quite tough since it has made me very tired and apparently it will get worse ugh!!
Never mind, when I have the energy I have been sewing, yup I have rediscovered the art of sewing, it is BIG right now. I toddled off to John Lewis and bought the yummiest fabric and pattern from Amy Butler to make a bag.
This is the finished article, I am very proud of myself since it actually looks like it is supposed to. I showed Alan and he said "oh is that the new peg bag??" ARGGGGHH!! MEN!!!
My other news is that we are getting 2 hens this week. We have ordered an eglu which arrives tomorrow and we will be getting our two hens then too. We have decided to call them "Lily" and "Clover". Yesterday I went to a Hen Party , no, not the type with a male stripper, to learn about the Eglu and chickens. I had a great time and the lady that held the party, Stephanie, and her daughter and husband were very knowledgeable and helpful. Her hens are called "Boudica" and "Aphrodite" - here they are.....
This is their lovely pink hen house an "eglu" from Omlet, very cool.
As a bonus, Stephanie had made a cake and lovely egg mayo sarnies for us to sample - yum!
I'll be posting pics of the hens when we get them tomorrow, I am soooo excited.

Hi Sam
Love the bag - here speaketh a bag addict!! Glad to hear you're coping with the r/t - keep your chin up sweetie and get your head down when you can.

Gorgeous bag - well done you. So jealous about the hens - I would love to have the space to have some, I bet they will be so satisfying to keep. Can't wait to see pictures!
i still would have gone with Kiev and Chassuer for the hens names :)
Hugs xx
lovely bag. You will love the eglu, we have the guinea pig eglu and they are so happy living in it! Good luck with the chickens!
