We’ve had a relatively busy week, going to see Martha Wainwright in concert at the old Booking Hall venue in Dover. (It was good not to have to go to London for a concert). She’s an excellent singer and we enjoyed it, although we’re more familiar with her mother and aunt’s (the McGarrigle sisters) music.
On Sunday we went to an open-air performance of Macbeth at Goodnestone Castle gardens, by the Duke’s Theatre company. I love Macbeth, having once played First Witch at school in a long, ginger wig and Yoko Ono sunglasses. The one on Sunday was an excellent performance, and despite recent unsettled weather, it was dry. Here’s a scene with Macbeth and the witches.
Bella approves and sends you all purrs.
They were very inventive with having suddenly appearing red ribbons for all the blood. Of course, at the beginning we had to answer ‘When shall we three meet again?’ with ‘I can do next Tuesday’ as per Terry Pratchett. 😀🧙♀️🧙♀️🧙
I’ve done more work on my chevron blanket, too. I’ve put in a stitch marker I’ve called my ‘Are we there yet? Marker’. I’ve only reached full length once the strip is twice the length of the AWTY marker and it avoids temptation to measure the strip continually.
Here’s my first 180cm long strip, doubled up. Bella approves and sends you all purrs.
And finally …
I’ve always been fond of Wiley Coyote:

You’ve had a lovely busy week then! We are definitely on the same crib sheet when it comes to Pratchett, the man was a genius. The chevrons are coming along a treat, pretty colours - thx for the pattern, I confess I’ve not even looked at it yet, brain too scrambled but I will try. The coyote funny made me laugh out loud!

Sounds like you've had a good week. Bella knows all the best places for sure. Thanks for the smiles too. Happy woyww, hugs Angela x6x
Oh WOW the rock painting is brilliant makes me think of Dartmoor. At first sighting of the Macbeth photo I though it was Spiderman! LOL then I read on....silly me. Loving the colours in your new blanket. Hugs BJ#1
Looks like I am going to be immortal too Lynne. Had to laugh out loud at the coyote funny too. Glad the weather was kind for the Shakespeare performance. Loving your latest watercolour. Meow to Bella. Stay safe and Happy WOYWW. Sarah
The Macbeth looks like a great performance, very inventive indeed. Your blanket is coming along nicely, but oh those witches! That last recipe sounds OK to me! I'm going to be immortal too... Happy WOYWW!

I love the painting, it's beautiful, and the crochet is looking fabulous if somewhat complicated! I laughed at the funnies and I guess I'm going to be immortal too - along with most of the deskers!
Hope you have a good week,
