Hello Puss

The bracelet making sounds great and brings in money for your charity too. I always had a bent towards crafts and making things especially before the old RA hands took hold but as was the norm in those days - learn shorhand and typing so you have something to go back on.

I don't have many hobbies now but my daughter's friend is greatly into making her own cards. She does the most lovely birthday cards without all those over the top sentimental verses which is just not me. I think I might have a go at that.

Regards

Vera
