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

Gott Slut och Gott Nytt År, Enjoy New Year's Eve and Happy New Year

Happy New Year to you all,
here are photos of how green it is here today, thankfully.
and photos of my first and second attempts at spinning these past few days,
the olive green is very soft, the orange/yellow/brown has lots more character and has even been plied, just needs that final wash now...
also photo of what the original fuzzy wool looked like, before spinning.

    Hi -just back in the big smoke on broadband and reading about your pneumonia -doesn't sound like it's totally gone but hope you are managing to relax a bit-that spinning sounds very therapeutic anyway-Happy new year to all there!

    Hej på er!
    Jag har kryat på mig, äntligen, och nu börjar jag svara på era kommentarer, äntligen....
    Det har varit grönt här i mer än en vecka nu, men det sägs att det ska komma snö ikväll. För mig gör det inget, vi är hemma från skolan imorgon ändå.
    Jag ser från de skandinaviska bloggar jag läser att det har snöat mycket i Norden de senaste 3 dagar, stackars ni som får skotta snö och köra på hala vägar...
    Ni ska ha det så bra, däruppe i Norden!

    Hi A,
    in the big smoke,
    yes the phlegmin chest infection has finally loosened its hold on my lungs, so I am regaining energy and getting out again, thankfully...
    The spinning is truly therapeutic, and the bit of knitting comes in handy when waiting in doctor's waiting rooms....
    but all is well, save for drop in pay, rise in VHI and other assorted plagues visited upon us by the TDs in power,
    does nothing ever change...?
    hugs
    liz
