Subject: RE: [lace] Camilla's Hats and a quiet list
Actually, the UK Lace Guild's convention would explain the silence from the
UK, but NOT the blissful silence from the US. Meanwhile, I got dozens of
private emails thanking me for speaking out about ceasing the discussion
regarding the IOLI name change and taking it to Denver where it belonged.
But - alas - the subject appeared yet again this morning, so I suppose that
the delete key will just have to stay active!!
Meanwhile, I am impressed at the lack of interest on the part of the press for the union of Prince Charles and "the rotweiller". I laughed uproariously at the descriptions of the feathered hats worn by the hoity toity on Saturday, but on a search of the internet could only find one picture of a guest - the daughter of the rotweiller - and the descriptions were accurate!! Incredible what some people do in the name of fashion. Her "headdress" looked like a pile of undercooked fettucini nested on one side of her head!!
OK - I've been naughty, but after their 35 years of "in your face" misbehavior, that's small potatoes!!

Now I know why the list was quiet over the weekend - the UK Lace Guild's convention was on. I hope someone will report on the high-lights of the weekend. I suppose I can read about when my magazine arrives. My I.O.L.I. Bulletin has yet to arrive though.
Anyway, the weather here in Tartu was dreary both days. DH surprised me by watching the live telecast of the Royal Wedding all the way through. I finished knitting a scarf at the same time. Camilla's first hat was described as being a straw hat covered with French lace & it was quite elegant. Then when she appeared at the chapel with what I would've called "grass" instead of feathers I was a little disappointed. I would have chosen something more befitting of a Duchess. What did other viewers think?
I just hope that we see some sunshine this week. The snow has all gone, & the crocuses & snow-bells are blooming.
