In a fankle

Made a carrot cake this morning; carrots, sultanas and pecan nuts, surely that should cover some of our five a day!  

More foul weather, the gales are more northerly today and it was very wet, but Ollie and I had a good walk and then called in to first foot a neighbour and take her some eggs.  Better late than never! 

I decided to sort out my knitting needles while Mike and I puzzled over a crossword.  Ella, dressed for the chilly weather, looked on . . . Somehow I have ended up with three odd needles, wonder where the other ones are . . .  I have a feeling they have been used as plant supports at some time in the past!

Fankle - Orkney word for a muddle!
