Episode 56 - I introduce Edward the Sloth, Mum and I chat about 1946 and Tommy is 8 months old

26th August 2022 - This weeks episode's fascinating fact is the Scaley Foot Snail, I show you some new sock wool, more macarons and mum and I chat about 1946. The end film is Tommy, my great grandson on his 8th month anniversary, friends Bob and Jan, a walk into Ramsgate and hearing the sirens in commemoration on WW2's start. #knitting#scaleyfootsnail#ww2 Welcome, my name is Pene and I live in S.E.England with my husband Pete and four chickens. After my retirement, working for the NHS as a counsellor, I decided to do Penelope’s Chinwag. It’s a chatty vlog about crafting, a fascinating fact about the natural world, maybe a chat with Mum or Pete and a story or poem. In episode 12 I introduced Transactional Analysis, (which is in its own playlist). a model of counselling that is practical and helpful. I finish with a short film usually taken when I’m out walking or from our garden. The films are also in their own playlist. 00:00 Introduction 02:35 Edward the Sloth 06:18 Socks 12:57 Quilting 18:19 mini macarons 23:29 Scaley Foot Snail 26:39 Mum's chat about 1946 39:14 Introduction to film 40:26 Film - Tommy friends Ramsgate Sirens I mention Yarn n Yarns Mousiemakes - Helen Ketteridge Rose Garden Patchwork Lorna Bateman
