Hello!
Well, I was very lucky and made it home four days before the Icelandic volcano, Eyjafjallajökull, erupted and spewed lots of ash and steam into the air. As I'm sure everyone knew, it totally stopped all the flights in Europe. I watched a particular site and saw the planes gradually retreating into the south of Europe. I watched as the sky gradually cleared from it's usual criss-cross of vapour trails. I watched as the flight I was supposed to take on my next adventure was cancelled, I sat with a very glum face not being able to go anywhere :(
Sigh.

Hello!
The problem with being stuck at home with nothing to do is that there are lots of ways you can get into trouble. I thought I would try my hand at crochet, I thought, you can't get into trouble doing crochet. So I made a very nice woolly hat. But yes, you've guessed it, I got into trouble again. I got the yarn all messed around my body and then ending up getting sucked into the box of yarn and had to be rescued again. Sigh! At least the planes are flying again now, so finally I can get on with my next adventure. I'm going to visit good old friend who will take me to some cool places! Yippee!

Hello!
It's really great to be on the road again having been stuck at home not being able to go anywhere because of the volcanic ash cloud. I went to visit an old friend of mine that I hadn't seen for a while, Vassi the dog and his sister. We decided to line up for a nice group photo shot and I took a the lovely soft seat on the back of Vassi, but because he was a bit slippery Vassi's sister helped me so that I wouldn't fall. Unfortunately Vassi sister is only 2 and of course I fell off all the way down to where Vassi's teeth were...... Sigh, I hope this adventure doesn't go horribly wrong and I get into lots of trouble again!
