Goodbye Easter, farewell Pesach: )

My old friend Rob Nightingale has a gig on tonight at William's Bar (opposite Oxfam on Goodramgate) from about 7:30 iirc. Anyone fancy it? He's very good, and rather funny, and it's in a good cause (something involving sick children). So no writing group tonight, probably.

Yesterday, [livejournal.com profile] ravenlas and I headed off down to Ryton-on-Dunsmore for the Re-enactors' Market, with a brief stop off in Nottingham to pick up [livejournal.com profile] fire_kitten and see her gorgeous new house. *very envious*

I now have a pair of medieval boots, a puritan hat, and (courtesy of my beloved), a horn plate, spoon and comb and a pair of leather gauntlets. I *could* have spent an absolute fortune, had we won the lottery on Wednesday, but alas, that was not to be. [livejournal.com profile] ravenlas came back with three new Del Tin swords to add to his collection. *heh* It was a great day, and we got to catch up with friends, but it was a very long day (got home - via Tesco's) at 8:30pm having left 13 hours previously. Meh.

Anyway, thanks to that, not much food, and half a bottle of wine, I slept soundly (apart from a 2:30 'fuss me' call from Sebastian, who got taken back downstairs and shut in the living room) and woke up at 7:30 this morning, which is almost unheard of for a Sunday morning. I couldn't sleep any longer, so I went swimming instead, tidied up the living room and the kitchen... And then...

There was snow! *squee*

And my friends Steve & Lesley came round and fussed the cat lots, and it was lovely to see them. So now, back to dressmaking. And maybe more snow. *looks out of the window hopefully at the big grey clouds*

Just for [livejournal.com profile] fire_kitten, today's porridge recipe: )
