Malcolm and I hadn't been to the Woodhorn Museum before, and we had assumed it was just a collection of the mine buildings and machinery .... so we were amazed to see this visitor centre (Malcolm and Jennifer kindly supply the scale!)
They are looking at this
The plaque made us smile, as the word jobbie means something quite different for us!!
This memorial is for the men who died in the 1916 pit explosion
We will have to go back, to have a closer look at the various buildings and large pieces of machinery
After getting off to such a good start knitting the fairies, I seem to have got bogged down finishing them. I am still fiddling about attaching the wings to wire to shape them, but I have made a start to doing Cobweb's hair. I haven't stitched it in place yet, but I think it looks good!
As always I was at patch'n'chat this afternoon, and there were cheers when we went through for our afternoon cuppa, and found our favourite apple and sultana cake!
I hope you all have a good weekend - no doubt I will be chained to the sewing machine!! Love Anne
