I took the day off work today and met Mum in York for a birthday day out.

Well before I even went I had yarn - my lovely friend Lynn bought me some Posh Yarn for my birthday:



But I didn't let that stop me from going to buy more yarn, from the fantastic Sheepish. I got some more sock yarn.



We also made a trip to the fantastic Duttons for Buttons, where I got the buttons for the chunky hoodie I am knitting.



On the way back to the station I noticed that York in springtime was doing what it does best - daffodilling the castle walls:

Thankyou - and yes they do. York is rightly famous for them :)

Why thankyou.

That reminds me, I found a second shop in York that sells Moniak (as well as a fine range of ciders) - at £1 cheaper!

That Posh Yarn is a splendid colour.

Isn't it just.

and of course, I have *nothing* to go with it ... which means I have to buy *more yarn*

Perfect really ;)

Sounds like a lovely day Hazel. The Posh Yarn is indeed very pretty. I know you linked to Duttons for Buttons just for me! Enjoy the rest of your happy birthday day.

Happy Birthday mrs :D Glad to see you had a good one, and got nice things, and saw nice things too :D Duttons for Buttons is the best shop ever, and also you have really really good yarn. Which Posh Yarn is it? Not that it matters seeing as they are all gorgeous...

I've been so self-absorbed with the move and stuff that I forgot it was your birthday and haven't sent a card... I'm so so so so sorry.

That's ok hon. You had other things on your mind (and I didn't expect one anyway)
