    I have tried knitting and needle craft but I gave up I have plenty to do though I admire people  who can do the sort of thing  you do so well done 
    Im a quilter usually but since my accident i have found it hard to get back too, by the time i have got organised for the day and done all my chores i have so little energy left. I have been wanting to weave for a long time so hoping it will reignite my passion for craft.

    It's unlikely I'll be able to do the game design course up at Peaks after all, especially if it's full time as I'd lose my care so my Parents won't let me risk it.

    I await an email next week to see if it's part or full time, although they've announced just now that the Colleges don't go back till the 18th of January unless the students' Parents are keyworkers, and both my Parents are retired.

    My Nephew and Niece are OK though, my sister in law, their Mum, is a keyworker so they go back next week.

    Students with parents that are keyworkers and students that are vulnerable will also return to college/school on Monday 4th January.
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.
