hello from london [part forty]

hello friends

this is a very sleepy update because i started a new project and have been excitedly working on it the past two nights and it is now 2.04 am and i think i should go to bed before my eyes fall out. do you want to see it?


this is the front of a christmas stocking i am making for chris. it looks a strange beige colour but it is more mustard than beige.


"ou est la gare!" is c's favourite french expression, he threw it about in paris but never in the correct context and delivered not as a question but as a statement.


he likes to make mix cds. i only knew he liked me because he gave me a mix cd laden with subliminal messages. when we met he claimed to be the master of this artform.


it is winter in london and apparently it is going to snow tomorrow. indoors often, we play a lot of boardgames [the loser has to write the winner a poem].


chris has a 'tashe and rosy cheeks.

thank you for indulging me! sometimes i wonder if i am too old to still be making craft like this.

i miss you and home. i will write a proper update later. if you sent a christmas card, yes, i have received it. i will not say too much here but you should expect one in return.

love
