Working, working, working and working.

I haven't managed to update my blog in the last month because I've been getting together all the information for my next three books.
Information is a really easy word to say and write, but information followed by "for my next 3 books" isn't an easy task.

Anyway, I actually managed to have a day off and I visited an antique shop and found a lovely old book, I like to think its Victorian but its probably from the 1920s.

I love this extract:
Formerly knitting was practically confined to the making of stockings and yet there are numberless other useful and ornamental articles, such as mufflers, motor scarves, shawls, counterpanes, cradle covers, gloves, lace of all sorts, &c. which can be made with knitting needles.
Besides its useful side, knitting is a pleasant pastime that can be resorted to at odd moments and carried on, whilst talking or even reading.

I love the sentence that includes the words 'at odd moments'!
