@Shaz Jones only when I have to mention a footy team. We have grandsons that live footy so we picked a team to connect with them and it would have been boring to support the same team. But I'm not really into sport that much, I love the quiet of crafting and nature and gardening more.

OK Steph in my usual backwards way I only just read your comment. Yes, we now live on opposite sides of the continent, but all that proves is that close proximity isn't a prerequisite for friendship right? I started sewing as a young adult when I realised my dream of going to Africa to deliver babies, be a voice for the voiceless and die an early death wasn't going to happen since I had decided to marry a concreter. I had never been a creative, failing both art and craft at school but then I found myself expecting a baby (also a surprise) so suddenly started channelling this inner 'creative earthmover sewer/gardener'. I love to grow food which gets shared with community, flowers, and sew and knitted. I give my things away, never charging for any of it. Although I did donate a handknitted blanket to a friend's fundraiser which sold at auction for $300 - aahh, the power of competition and way too many drinks! And that's me.
