[lace-chat] Bowes Museum Harrogate Lace Event
Hi Later this month my DH and I shall be travelling north to visit both the Bowes Museum and also the Harrogate Lace Event, really looking forward to seeing the Blackbourne exhibition at the Bowes as I've heard so much about it. It will also be nice to attend a lace suppliers fair that we've not been to before. I do have a couple of questions, firstly will there be any other arachneans attending the Harrogate Lace Event on 24 March, it would be lovely to meet you if you are going and perhaps have a chat over coffee; and can anyone local to the area recommend a BB in the Castle Barnard area rather than Harrogate, (I'm hoping to visit on both the Thursday Friday - DH hasn't twigged that one yet!). Our last couple of forays using internet have turned up a couple of interesting one night only and never again BB's, so I thought I'd try and get a couple of personal recommendations instead. Many thanks and hope to meet one or two of you at the Lace Event best wishes Nicky in Suffolk To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace-chat [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Fw: [lace-chat] Driving us mad
Subject: [lace-chat] Driving us mad Can anyone help my lace group? One of the Yellow Pages sponsorship scenes that precedes the segments of the TV CSI group of programmes is driving us mad. In one the stupid American detective says what he wants is ... and some of those cute little jam rolls you British have at fancy parties. What cute little jam rolls? What is he talking about? The only ones we can think of are the small swiss rolls, sometimes with a jam filling, that are sold in packs of six or so. But do we have those at fancy parties? If we do, then I've never been to a fancy party. Hello all, Well I have thought and thought about it and the only thing that I could come up with is crumpets ? That is the only thing British that I can think of. Hugs, Lynn To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace-chat [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I don't mind not being able to reach the top shelves -- I can't read the prices on those shelves, so I don't regard those items as being for sale. It's nice to have the price ledge slanted, so that you can read the labels on the bottom shelf without getting down on hands and knees -- but you'd think they'd use a *different* price ledge for the top shelf! DH is fond of kipper snacks that are kept on the top shelf. When they are in stock -- which they haven't been for a long time -- I'll use my pocket mirror to read the tag. And then stand on the bottom shelf to reach them. -- Joy Beeson http://joybeeson.home.comcast.net/ http://roughsewing.home.comcast.net/ http://n3f.home.comcast.net/ -- Writers' Exchange http://www.timeswrsw.com/craig/cam/ (local weather) west of Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A. where the snow has melted and refrozen and we're being careful where we walk.
