Any of the above - oh and make sure you have your allocation of chocolate beside you, we wouldn't want anybody flagging after a few hours! :lol:

The UK is starting to be in Olympics/Diamond Jubilee feever, fuelled by trade and industry, I'm sure. I went shopping today for some essentials such a toilet paper, pasta, milk, etc., and spotted a special display in the shop with toothbrushes in patriotic red, white, and blue stripes.

Isn't it great to have the time to spend on the site reading!

So here's another possible entry: Quilt-related Surfing. :D

aww! spoilsport! couldn't we have a 'hand-quilting over the petrol tank, from behind the driver' class? Personally I would choose a lean driver - cos I've only got short arms (and the rest of me)
Truely, I didn't mean to be a spoil sport I just thought it a physical impossibility. It takes someone much more clever :idea: :idea: :idea: than I am to figure out how its done. And more than that I am never ceased to be amazed how easy we are to be entertained. :lol: :lol: :lol: Lois
Where there is a will, there is a way - just don't get between a quilter and her quilting.. right :wink:

you flatterer you! - but yes he could probably could view the track over my head no problem (nearly everyone else does over the age of 12 :roll: ) now if only I had learnt tailoring crossed legged, it would be a doddle.

Lorchan, that fascinator looks really smart! I hope you had fun shopping for it, and can't wait for the pics with you & it in the same frame.

Into the gym - how about floor exercises of Pin basting (several classes - bent safety pins, straight safety pins, straight pins and straight pins with Pinmores) and Blocking.
Parallel Seams
Stash Vaulting
in weight lifting there is the 'Lift & Snatch' with varying different lengths starting at 5m and going up in 5m increments.
