After the guild meeting on Saturday we made our way to the
Round Britain Rally (RBR to those in the know) presentation dinner. The RBR is a challenge to visit landmarks in every county of the country using a list of memorials, places of interest etc supplied by the organisers. The idea is to locate the landmark which involves a fair amount of research, visiting it and taking a photo of your motorbike by it. This keeps my hubby busy most weekend through the summer whilst I am out spinning etc.
So, as you would imagine, I was surprise to find fellow spinners there and wished that I had taken my wheel. Watch out next year, the wheels will be there, we have made arrangements!!
we caught the sunset on the way across.
Knitting made a surprise appearance in the form of a auction prize, do I didn't win it!
and I ended the evening in true spinnotts style, spinning in the bar.
OK, photo taken with empty spindle but I did do some spinning, honest!!!

I haven't been on a motorbike since I was in college in the early 70s... sounds like loads of fun! The topsy-turvy doll is adorable. I'm sure the lucky winner adores it!
That empty Guinness glass is making my mouth water, and it's only 6 a.m. here. Lovely spindle... I hope to learn how to use mine effectively soon. Maybe I need a trip across the pond!
Looking forward to the wheels next year! I love to knit but haven't tried spinning yet. Double pointies fit nicely in a top box!
spindles fit in top boxes too!! suspect we will have three wheels there next year as a certain person was playing on mine a couple of weeks ago and has her sights set on one of her own!
