Knit group, Tuesdays from 7:30 in The Prince Albert, Bellenden Rd


Au'Lait

Recommended Posts

We meet weekly, as the title says, to knit and natter, stitch and bitch, and to drink and laugh. You don't have to be a knitter to join, any crafty type is welcome to come along including wannabe-crafters, we can teach you if you want to learn to knit or crochet. I'm going to bring some ping pong balls tomorrow night to knit/crochet around to make baubles, and also cake (because its time for that annual reminder of impending old age, my birthday). Come along!

Hello All,

Is this still taking place? and dare I ask, who are you?! ;) What type of people - younger/older/mix? My Mum is looking for something like this and has been for a good while, she's in the 60-70 age bracket :) just so I can tell her a little more!


Thanks x

Hi, sorry, I thought I had notifications set up but it seems not. Yes, were still going. Small group of regulars, all women (men welcome though too), from early 30's to late 40's, drop ins of varying ages. We can be fairly animated and possibly sometimes slightly sweary(that'd probably just be me, actually just be me. Your mum is very welcome to come along and see if she likes us. We're not meeting every week at the moment so it's a good idea to message. We usually communicate with a whatspp group, pm me and I can pop you or her on it. We also have a Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/105594917610/ here, it's not all that used but you'll at least get a response there.

Hi centra95, we haven?t been meeting regularly anymore. I?d love to be part of a knit night again but at the moment am not in a position to try to reinvigorate this one. Our group was simply people coming together with their own crafty projects (knitting, crochet, embroidery, paper piecing, etc) in a welcoming venue to natter and chat.


I think this knit night is ongoing if you?re willing to travel a little https://www.yarninthecity.com/knit-night

    • I don't know how spoillable food can be used as evidence in whatever imaginary CSI scenario you are imagining.  And yes, three times. One purchase was me, others were my partner. We don't check in with each other before buying meat. Twice we wrote it off as incidental. But now at three times it seems like a trend.   So the shop will be hearing from me. Though they won't ever see me again that's for sure.  I'd be happy to field any other questions you may have Sue. Your opinion really matters to me. 
    • If you thought they were off, would it not have been a good idea to have kept them rather than throwing them away, as evidence for Environmental Health or whoever? Or indeed the shop? And do you mean this is the third time you have bought chicken from the same shop which has been off? Have you told the shop? Why did you buy it again if you have twice previously had chicken from there which was off? Have I misunderstood?
    • I found this post after we just had to throw away £14 of chicken thighs from Dugard in HH, and probably for the 3rd time. They were roasted thoroughly within an hour of purchase. But they came out of the oven smelling very woofy.  We couldn't take a single bite, they were clearly off. Pizza for dinner it is then. Very disappointing. 
    • interesting read.  We're thinking about the same things for our kids in primary school as well. One thing I don't understand about Charter ED is whether they stream / set kids based on ability.  I got the impression from an open evening that it is done a little as possible. All i could find on-line was this undated letter - https://www.chartereastdulwich.org.uk/_site/data/files/users/18/documents/9473A8A3547CCCD39DBC4A55CA1678DC.pdf?pid=167 For the most part, we believe in mixed ability teaching and do not stream in Year 7 or Year 8. The only exceptions to this are that we have a small nurture class for Maths. This is a provision for students who scored lower than 85 in their SATS exams and is designed to support them to acquire the skills to access the learning in mainstream class. We do not have nurture classes for any other subjects. We take a more streamed - though not a setted - approach in Maths and Science from Year 9 onwards. though unsure if this is still accurate reflection of policy, and unsure of difference between streaming and setting.
