@girlbeforemirror,

I find the word stupid a little harsh, but you did reveal your ignorance re stitching techniques. I'm a crocheter not a knitter.

I stand corrected. Crocheter ... not a knitter. :-)

...I was going to post you a fab 100% acrylic scarves, or perhaps even one from my more exclusive Australian merino range, but...

Blackmailer.

I live in Central Florida. We get 2-3 weeks of long-shirt weather per year. The rest of the year is sweltering.

I think you should send me a weekly email with similar content to this, is is good for my ego. On a serious note, my self concept very much needed a boot at the moment, you have no idea how much your encouragement helps me.

I'm writing a post as we speak. I've written a "poem-in-reply."

I have never read Tennyson, I will today.

He's a direct family ancestor. My family is "soldiers and poets" back as far as the eye can see.

Technical question: How do you get your lines of poetry to appear in "stanza form" (reduced line spacing intra-stanza) like you did in this post?
