Over the last few months I’ve managed to shrink two wollen tops that I really liked, the first was a v-neck jumper, the second a cardigan. I think I’ve managed to restore the cardigan by soaking it in luke warm water and hair conditioner (as recommended here), but the jumper doesn’t seem to want to be stretched.
Does anyone else have tips on how to un-shrink a jumper?
I think from here on in I’m going to be hand washing…
My work colleague, Yarek, brought an exercise ball into the office.
We’re not quite sure why he did this, but have all grown to appreciate it over the last few weeks.
Here’s a little film I made about it.
With Emmerson the dog. Check out Stina’s Flickr page for more old pictures.
I published this yesterday on my tumblr page, but realised it belongs here too:
I had my first collision with a car this morning.
Riding to the office, enjoying my new bike.
Just 3 minutes from work, on a mini roundabout next to ASDA.
Clear indication wasn’t enough for her.
She saw me, hesitated, then sped up.
I saw her stopping, continued my exit of the roundabout, then watched wide eyed as she accelerated, then braked immediately in front of me.
No time to brake as I hurtled towards her car, then head first, in slow motion, into the bonnet.
The whole roundabout stood still, waiting for signs of life as I peeled myself from the bonnet, glared at the driver and her son and uttered a pointedly sarcastic “Thank You Very Much!”
As soon as I was off her car she sped away, the front of her black Ford KA bearing the mark of the impact.
I continued my journey, bruised and shaken, but nothing broken.
My boss had a batman party at his home. Sofia was Bat Girl and I was The Joker…
