Morning All I just realised I replied privately to Agnes. (and I guess-timated it was 4 3/4 not too bad for a guess!!) Anyway, she was being cheeky!!!

Brought with me from Poland scales which weigh in grams and kilos, every thermometer in the house has both Celsius and Farenheit, and every measuring cup, tailor's tape and ruler has markings for both "the metric and the weird". How many meters is that? 1yard=3feet=36inches=90cm It's easiest to remember that a foot is 30cm and that there are three of them in every yard. So, Sue's "5yds" is 30x3x5.

Hello fellow Arachneans Earlier I sent the message below out... I didn't mean OIDFA. I did mean IOLI. So, thanks to the IOLI members who donated the items!! (Sorry Clay, slip of the fingers... or the brain cell - it was a blonde moment darlings!!) Mind you, I'm sure there are some members of IOLI who are also members of OIDFA, so they need thanking anyway!! Sue in East Yorkshire Thanks to you and to the OIDFA members who donated these items. (Cranberry Lacers, Lighthouse Lacers of Kenosha and Heartland Lace Guild) Your items are gratefully received and will be shown to any lacemaker within 5 yards of my pillow!!
