When you go to a woolly fibre event , 'Shear Joy' ( and it was exactly that) and you buy the most beautiful fleece , you know that you have had a superb afternoon. Thankyou Lynne for coordinating . I loved it. We now have a delightful fleece in our campervan for the next couple of days. (Hubby and pooch are coping!!)
Thankyou Helen
