Fantastic !....

Spins....with ease ....brilliant !
The girls and babies....out today...the snow is melting !! ... Yipee

The older boys....... no snow....


Today I thought that I'd give my new Electric Spinning Wheel a whirl.....its NOT an item of extreme torture...its brilliant.

As my back was slightly improved...I got myself comfortable and thought that I'd just get the feel of the wheel. As I started spinning up some of Zanubis's fleece.. I thought that I'd carry on with the same...its just some second cuts that I had lying around.

The bobbin is much fuller....now, so I thought that you might like to see the results.

We have had a massive melt over the last couple of days...there have been streams of water running every where over the fields....draining away down to the burn !

I do hope that this is the end of the snow....for this winter... I must admit that the birds have chirped into life in the last couple of days....maybe their celebrating Spring Time !!

I hope so !!

It's looking good. I've not had chance to play with my new wheel yet.
