A blog by an Irishwoman, written in both English and Swedish, depending on what humour is on me....
En blogg av en irländska, skriven på svenska och engelska.
Just scroll down to find the English bits among the Swedish, or vice versa.

Ta Gaeilge agam freisin, más é an rud é go bhfuil éinne eile le Gaeilge ag léamh mo bhlagsa.

Ich verstehe auch ein bisschen Deutsch, je parle un petit peu francais och klarar av lite norska med.

Wondering about the background of the blog? They're the Cliffs of Moher, in the neighbouring county, County Clare, 8km long, 700m high, and magnificent. Well worth a visit if anyone is around the West of Ireland

Got some wool(both yarn and actual wool to spin) from 2 ladies today, yippee!!!

Tidied out some of son's clothes and gave them to a lovely lady with a 2 yr old son, and then bought my son a new jacket for September and school.

Bought a game of Numero, which should cost more than 10 euro , for 70 cent at a charity shop! (Numero is a card game that uses maths skills, great fun, look it up online, it came from Australia originally. We have a few games of it at school, now I have one for home!)

Got lots of plants, reduced, some for only 50c and 1 euro and 2 clematis for 3 euro each, at Atlantic Homecare, all they need is a good drink of water, plenty of that in Ireland from clouds these days....(too late to photo them outside)

Treated myself to some yummy squishy wool on sale from a wool shop and some startling red wool for a winter scarf

and finally bought not one but TWO knitting magazines!
