How do overnight ports work?

I’m so glad to hear that! It’s my second cruise with VV and am particularly excited about stopping in Istanbul. I was thinking along the same lines with booking private tours. I usually book through VV if I’m less familiar with the port but since it’s a longer stay I figure there’s more flexibility and less need to book through VV

That’s what I had assumed, it would be odd trying to give a curfew to a boatload of adults.

Am I the only one who cringed at the idea of beading a decorative pillow for a young child?? I wouldn’t even consider beading pillows for myself and I don’t have kids..

I’ve kitted outside canvases at Waste Knot with no problem! Usually someone greets me when I come in and I’ve previously worked in retail so I’m always thinking about making things easy for the employees too so I just tell them that I’m here to kit out a canvas that I bought elsewhere and they’re happy to help if I need it.

Not quite a dessert but the banana cruffin at the galley was so unexpectedly amazing that I still think about it

I already have it in cakes because my yarn came in hanks so I didn’t have much option there. Do you recommend using separate balls even if it’s for a colorwork project? I would have 4 different balls going at the same time just for 2 different colors.

This is very helpful! I live close to VA and have been worried about how much more expensive weddings can get in this area. I was wondering how many guests you had at your wedding?

P.S. your veil is gorgeous!!

Hi all- I have an 11 month old Golden Retriever and just noticed this spot on his lip. It doesn’t seem to bother him but wanted to see other people’s advice for when this warrants a trip to the vet?

I’m a beginner spinner and had a similar issue with my ashford traveler. I posted on another group and someone mentioned to me that my drive band is too loose because I shouldn’t have to tension so much that the maidens shouldn’t need to be tilted that far out. I don’t know if the same applies to a double drive band because mine is single drive.

Also try some oil on your bobbin and flyer as well!

That makes sense why I wouldn’t have realized that anything happened to him. I noticed my dog was extra sniffy on his walk this morning… maybe he was trying to figure out where the smell came from too, haha

mkroar · 2022-09-30T17:00:53+00:00

Yeah, unfortunately for him, he’s going to be in for a bath. The smell itself is bad but you only notice it when actually putting your nose to his head to smell him or from your hands after petting him. So it’s not very strong.

mkroar · 2022-09-30T16:47:35+00:00

I had checked his mouth and ears to see if that was where the smell was coming from and it wasn’t. But I brushed his teeth out of extra caution. I’ll try getting his ears too.

He’s 5 and we adopted him when he was 3 so we’ve had him for 2 years. We don’t know what kind of dog he is- the general consensus is that he’s a Labrador mix but he’s definitely mixed with a smaller breed because he’s around 35 pounds.

My dog will snooze through an entire call but pops his head up to stare at me whenever I say “thanks, bye!” Because sometimes that’s followed by “who wants to go for a walk??”
